Behavioral Measurement Database Services

The Health and Psychosocial Instruments (HaPI) database, developed by Behavioral Measurement Database Services (BMDS), is a leading resource that has been providing accurate and comprehensive information about measurement tools for nearly four decades. Catering to diverse disciplines such as psychology, medicine, nursing, public health, sociology, and organizational behavior, HaPI supports researchers and practitioners in identifying relevant measurement instruments for their studies.

With over 240,000 records, including more than 5,000 new entries added annually, HaPI serves a global subscriber base, including universities, healthcare institutions, and research organizations. The database features an extensive collection of surveys, rating scales, and interviews crucial for evaluating health-related topics and enhancing research reliability and validity. Established in the early 1970s by Dr. Evelyn Perloff, HaPI emerged from a need to provide easy access to these vital tools, evolving into an indispensable online resource for professionals seeking to advance their research methodologies across various fields.
