Likewise, when translating CATS to CATS-S, this also became anoticeable issue upon inspection. Consider questions one through three of CATS-S where “is tobe drawn” from CATS is phrased as “se dibujará” in Spanish, which translates to “will bedrawn” (see Figure 1). Although not dramatically, the imperative sense of “is to be drawn” islost, which could bring momentary confusion to a student undergoing the testing process.There were also inconsistencies with regards to the translation of terminology from CATS toCATS-S.
