Abstract
Tests are fundamental to psychology, and their use should always be supported by solid evidence. Since 2010, the National Test Commission of the General Council of the Spanish Psychological Association has been carrying out annual evaluations, using the Test Evaluation Questionnaire-Revised (CET-R) with the collaboration of external experts. To date, 96 tests have been evaluated. This tenth edition includes six tests from three well-known publishing houses: TEA Hogrefe, Pearson Educación, and Giunti Psychometrics. In addition, the psychometric properties were also reviewed of a non-commercial test, the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), mentioned among the 25 most used tests by Spanish psychologists. Evaluating non-commercial tests, developed in academic contexts, is crucial, as it enriches the set of tools available to practitioners. This paper addresses the challenges of evaluating tests of this type and offers suggestions for improving both the development and validation of the tests as well as the review of their psychometric properties using the CET-R.
