I have a similar question actually as, in the process of doing a research study on how students differentially prepare for essay versus MC tests, I have come across some surveys that are approximations of what I want, though not totally on target. So to piggy-back on Rick's question, could I use part or a facsimile of a test provided in a journal article without asking for permission? I would tend to assume the latter but feel this an important concern and would appreciate the thoughts of the great minds on this listserv.
