Popis: The main goal of this research project is to describe the productionof knowledge in psychometrics and to identify aspectsthat make it possible to provide feedback for the developmentof training policies in this area. For this purpose, 7.259 thesesand research projects carried out by professors of psychologyin Bogotá and Chía between 1960 and 2009 were gathered, and241 of them, related to the field of measurement, were analyzedusing a grid designed for that purpose. Results showed an incipientyet growing interest in the area over the past two decades,as well as a need for further appropriation and assessmentof the existing models in test theory: classical theory and itemresponse theory. From the dual perspective of theoreticaland applied psychometrics, the study indicated the need tostrengthen the models domain, the criteria, and the evidenceproduction processes for the validity and reliability of constructedor evaluated tests. The study also showed the lack ofconsensus regarding the classification of psychometric studies.
