Is the MBTI, MMPI, WAIS, NEO-PI, Rorschach, etc. available by anonymous FTP?
No. Because there’s money in them, and also because: The purpose of any test is to differentiate the test takers from those who have already taken the test. Therefore, the conditions under which the test is administred should always remain the same. Also, the publisher of a test normally wants to keep some level of control over test administration. This is because the value of a test decreases if the test items becomes generally known, or if it is known that the test has previously been administered under less than serious circumstances. Therefore, psychological tests are usually not only copyrighted, several tests can only be administred by licensed psychologists who have completed courses in administring the test. Sometimes the manuals are publicly available. What is sometimes available are quick-and-dirty variants of the MBTI.
