Are undergraduate Psychology students allowed to purchase and administer tests such as NPI, SRP-II, and LSRP?

Question

I'm doing my thesis right now and I really, really need these measures... Please help...

Answer 1

I'm not sure if these are the tests you're asking for. I checked Buros (which maintains a database of 4000 assessments) and found this information:
The Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI) can be found for free in this article:

The SRP-II may be a little outdated. I would recommend that you look into the Hare Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R).

To order the PCL-R, you do have to have an advanced degree. Do you have an advisor for your thesis? Maybe they can sponsor you to order the test.
As a student researcher, you may be able to get 30% off the test:

One of the authors of the LSRP has kindly posted the full-text article that includes all the test items.

Go all the way down to research and click on the pdf file for Levenson, M.R., Kiehl, K.A., & Fitzpatrick, C. (1995) Assessing psychopathic attributes in a noninstitutionalized population. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 68, 151-158. You can just copy the test items from there.

Answer 2

Probably not, since you must be trained in proper administration and can't ethically interpret the results until you are a supervised grad student taking a course in psychometrics.
If your institution has a graduate student clinic, they will have copies of just about every standardized test imaginable. You may be able to look them over if you make an appointment to do so.

Answer 3

Agree

Answer 4

if they have a wide range of experience from that, why not
