摘要(中文): 本文之目的有三:一為介紹Buros編輯心理測量年鑑(Mental Measurements Yearbook , MMY)的起始與歷程,同時並敘述隨著此一刊物之印行,而逐步發展的專責機構Buros Institute of Mental Measurements(簡稱BIMM)及其演變,同時透過對發展歷程的回顧,檢視發行遭遇的問題與解決。二為介紹MMY的內容及因應數位化時代來臨BIMM線上資料庫檢索系統之建立。最後將檢視MMY所遭遇的困難及BIMM嘗試解決的辦法,並對照國內在測驗年鑑編製的回顧,期能做為國內編製相關刊物之參酌。
從1938年起,MMY系列發行迄今已逾50年,其間從Buros獨力完成前三版後,到Rutgers大學成立心理測驗中心,給予繼續發行之資源,其間數度遭逢財務及編輯上的問題,導致MMY延遲出版或間隔甚久。隨著Buros的去世,Mitchell接任並成立BIMM(Buros Institute of Mental Measurements),延續Buros的理想,並製訂十年發展計畫,將MMY系列數位化並建立線上資料庫,其間遭遇不少的困境都足以做為我們的借鏡。最後MMY編輯時遭逢的問題很多,包括財務、人力資源、評論程序等等,這些問題及BIMM處理的方法亦可做為國內在編輯相關刊物時的參酌。
摘要(英文): This article tried to serve three purposes: firstly, to introduce Buros’ idea of MMY, the development of the Buros Institute of Mental Measurements (BIMM), and to discuss the solution of editing problems encountered by BIMM during the publishing process; secondly, to introduce the content of the MMY, and the MMY on line, which represents BIMM modulation of the publishing media to follow the digital era; finally , to review the problems that BIMM encountered and their efforts to deal with those problems, which can be our reference in editing the related publication.
The 1938 MMY was the initial step of Buros’ ambition. Over 50 years, the MMY series has become the most critical commercially available test review of English-language tests. However it also met several financial and editing problems breached Buros’ publishing plan. Even so, Buros still insisted on his idea. After his death, Mitchell became the chairman of the Mental Measurements institution. He moved it to Nebraska and changed its name to the Buros Institute of Mental Measurements (BIMM). Under his direction, BIMM continued editing program of MMY; moreover they created a 10-years digitalization plan which made MMY an on-line database system.
Finally, MMY’s publication had encountered many problems. The study of BIMM’s efforts to deal with them can be a reference to us if we want to edit a test yearbook similar to MMY in Taiwan.
