Abstract
En este trabajo se presenta un somero recorrido por los principales aspectos a tener en cuenta frente a la investigación con tests, dada la utilidad que tiene esta tecnología, en el ámbito de la criminología. El trabajo se enfoca desde el punto de vista del desarrollo de tests abordando la fase de diseño y pilotaje del instrumento de medida. También se abordan recomendaciones sobre el procesamiento estadístico de los datos prestando atención a los conceptos de fiabilidad y validez. Por último, se presenta una reflexión sobre el uso ético y responsable de la información recogida con tests. Para optimizar la utilidad práctica de este trabajo, presentamos un ejemplo de construcción de test para medir el riesgo de agresión a la pareja.
