Here you will find links to many textbooks on personality, abnormal psychology, and tests and measurements. It is hoped that these materials will help instructors and students find appropriate texts for their courses. Because the primary aim of this website is to cultivate interest, not to generate income, all revenues are deposited directly into the bank account of Haiti Outreach Pwoje Espwa (H.O.P.E.), an all-volunteer, non-sectarian nonprofit organization in Rochester, New York that provides health, education, and economic assistance in solidarity with the 40,000 residents of Borgne, Haiti. Also of interest are the Personality Books on research programs covered herein and the on-line resources from Personality Courses.
