Macro Packages: Download Pmet or Pmetrika packages

These packages were customized for Psychometrika by Tim Null in 2002. Please note that these packages were designed to make it easy for authors to submit publication-ready articles, and that the requirements for a review-ready article are slightly different. Authors who choose to use these packages to prepare a manuscript for submission to Psychometrika should make certain that the ms is double spaced. These packages will give the ms 1.5 spacing, and so must be modified.

Tim Nul makes the following recommendations:

The Pmet LaTeX Class Package is the recommended packaged for users of LaTeX 2.09, and authors currently using Version 1 of our LaTeX package. The Pmet package replaces the normal article class file with a pmet class file.

The Pmetrika Style File Package is the recommended packaged for Scientific Word users, BibTeX users, and those authors who prefer the appearance of documents with a ragged-right/ragged-bottom appearance such as what might be obtained with a word processor. The Pmetrika package uses the normal article class file, and enhances and/or changes its capabilities with several added packages.

If you have questions regarding the two versions, be sure to read "readme1st.txt" for the Pmet package, and "howto.pdf" for the Pmetrika package.
