The sale of restricted test materials on eBay has become the focus of increasing concern in the testing community for both publishers as well as clinicians. This is particularly acute in the case of clinically-oriented assessments because they often use printed materials (such as Rorschach plates and TAT cards) and physical stimuli (in the case of IQ kits) which can be sold easily. eBay has expressed recent resistance to prohibiting the sale of restricted test materials and will now only remove them from auction if it can be shown that their sale is harmful to the public. Aurelio Prifitera, Ph.D., President of The Psychological Corporation, posts his concerns and reactions to this.
