Abstract

For professionals to use tests adequately, they must have rigorous information about the quality of the tests. This is why during the last years, the Spanish test review model (Prieto & Muñiz, 2000) has been applied. The goal of this paper is to update and revise this model in order to incorporate the recommendations given after the original model was applied and, to incorporate the latest psychometric and technological innovations. The original model was revised following different steps, and the revised proposal was reviewed by a number of experts. After incorporating their suggestions, we arrived to the final version, which is described in this paper. With the application of the revised model, and the publication of the corresponding results, we expect to continue improving the use of tests, and consequently, the professional practice of Psychology.
