Summary/Abstract: In this research, I included four Romanian companies that construct/adapt and sell psychological assessment instruments: Testcentral, Cognitrom, RTS Romanian Psychological Testing Services and Psiho Proiect. On February 2018,these were commercializing 179 psychological assessment instruments.I have been following every company’s site, in order to find the available information regarding the psychological assessment instruments. I noticed the following shortcomings:• The available information categories and the places where these were organized differ not only between companies, but also from one instrument to another.• In the case of many of these psychological assessment instruments, there is no specification as to the age category of the population for which the instrument is adequate.• Certain psychological assessment instruments show inconsistency in the presented information.• Due to incomplete information, sometimes it is hard to find out if two psychological assessment instruments that have similar names measure the same construct.
