AB - This study was aimed at reviewing the psychometric properties of the Scale for Mood Assessment (Escala de Valoración del Estado de Animo; EVEA). After analyzing the results of 27 studies that have used the EVEA to measure transitory moods of sadness-depression, anxiety, anger-hostility or happiness, it may be concluded that the psychometric properties of the EVEA are good or excellent with respect to Us indices of: (a) internal consistency reliability: (b) convergent validity with other instruments that measure anxiety, depression, positive affect or negative affect: (c) discriminant validity to distinguish among different negative moods and between these moods and positive moods: (d) criterion validity to distinguish patients with and without psychological disorders; (e) factorial validity, and (f) sensitivity to detect changes in mood after the administration of a mood induction procedure.
