The MSCEIT is published by Multi-Health Systems, Inc (MHS) of Toronto, Canada. MHS will subsidize some of the costs for research use of the MSCEIT for qualified academic researchers!  Please read the following information carefully to understand your options and how to obtain the MSCEIT. 

MSCEIT OPTIONS FOR RESEARCH USE

First, determine if you qualify for any research discount by contacting MHS - e-mail the research people at R&D@mhs.com

Second, determine how your research participants will take the MSCEIT.

1-     Can you administer the MSCEIT on-line?  This will be your most cost-effective option!

2-     If you cannot administer the MSCEIT on-line, you will need to purchase printed MSCEIT Item Booklets.  These are full-color, and can be re-used.  MHS will score the answer sheets and return the information to you in about 2 weeks.

Third, determine the format for your participant data.

1-     You can receive a 10+ page Summary Report for each participant.  This is typically used in giving clients MSCEIT feedback.

2-     Or, you can receive the participants’ scored data in an Excel spreadsheet file.  This is the most cost-effective option, and the one that will likely best meet your research needs.  It also means that you do not have to enter any data by hand, saving a good deal of time and possible errors.

Your most cost-effective option for research use would be to -

1)      Administer the MSCEIT on-line   AND 

2)      Receive participant data in an Excel spreadsheet file.

Please note that MHS cannot provide a 'scoring key'.  MHS will score the MSCEIT and return all scores to you.

Researcher Options:

ONLINE VERSION – WITH CLIENT SUMMARY REPORT

You will need to purchase the manual and the desired amount of summary reports. Upon filling out researcher request forms, MHS will apply a 30% research discount to the standard prices (your researcher price is listed in the Research Price column.).  However, we encourage all researchers to request a scored data set, rather than a client summary report.  Contact me if your research protocol includes providing research participants with test feedback.  We have several user-friendly means to do so, including a detailed written client report.  (See sample here.)

ONLINE VERSION WITH SCORED DATA SET

Most of the time researchers are not interested in receiving the summary reports. They only want scored data sets.  In this case we ask that you purchase the manual at full price and you will receive a discounted rate of $5.00 per scored data set (as of this posting).  You will have to indicate to us how many scored data sets you are expecting, as we will charge you for the scored data sets in advance. 

Contact me if your research protocol includes providing research participants with test feedback.  We have several user-friendly means to do so, including a detailed written client report.  (See sample here.)
