Everybody evaluates objects in terms of good and bad. Besides this general tendency, some individuals are more motivated than others to make evaluative judgments. Individual differences in this need to evaluate can be reliably assessed with the Need to Evaluate (NE) Scale development by Jarvis and Petty. The purpose of the present work was to adapt the NE test to Spanish, and to assess its psychometric properties of reliability and validity . The first study revealed that the Spanish version of the NE test had a good internal consistency. A second study confirmed that the test also showed good properties in terms of discriminant validity. The NE correlated moderately with Need for Cognition and Need for Closure, and but not with Social Desirability.
