What to Order
There are four paper purchase alternatives for each instrument. Paper copies of the instruments are shipped via mail.
-
Manual/Sampler Set (S)
The Sampler Set is the Manual with a sample of the instrument. It contains a sample of the typical components used for administration, scoring, and interpretation. This usually consists of a Manual (with validity and reliability research results), a questionnaire/answer sheet, and scoring directions (all marked “sample” because they are for review, not for use). Please be sure to include the name of the instrument.
-
Bulk Permission (B) (150 - 500 copies)
Bulk Permission provides the purchasers with permission to reproduce from 150 to 500 copies of the instrument. Typically all components needed to use the instrument are included in the Bulk Permission (e.g., forms, scoring, answer sheet, etc. as appropriate for that instrument). Permission is granted to reproduce the instrument for personal and non-commercial use for a one-year period. Bulk Permissions do not contain a copy of the Manual/Sampler Set which must be purchased separately. Please be sure to include the name of the instrument if you are using a purchase order or order form. For quantities between 150 and 500 that are not shown in our price list, you may download and fill out an order form. Multiply the quantity you need by the price per copy. For example, for a quantity of 173, use the price per copy of quantity 150, multiplied by 173. For a quantity of 364, use the price per copy of quantity 300, multiplied by 364. Contact Mind Garden for quantities above 500. How can I save time and money with my order?
