Future of diagnostic language assessment
Diagnostic language assessment (DLA) has emerged as a major topic of interest among language testers, as evidenced by recent publications of journal articles and special journal issues on this topic (Alderson, Brunfaut, & Harding, 2014; Lee & Sawaki, 2009). Two fundamental goals of DLA are to identify language learners’ weaknesses and deficiencies, as well as their strengths, in the targeted language domains and provide useful diagnostic feedback…
Diagnosing diagnostic language assessment
Diagnostic language assessment (DLA) is gaining a lot of attention from language teachers, testers, and applied linguists. With a recent surge of interest in DLA, there seems to be an urgent need to assess where the field of DLA stands at the moment and develop a general sense of where it should be moving in the future. The current article, as the first article in this special issue, aims to provide a general theoretical background for discussion…

Multiple Regression
Multiple regression is a statistical technique used to examine which among independent variables are related to a dependent variable, and to explore the forms of the relationships between these variables. Multiple regression can also be used to predict scores of a dependent variable based on the scores of a set of independent variables. An applied linguistic researcher may have some theoretical relationships hypothesized a priori between a depend…
Dependability of scores for a new ESL speaking assessment consisting of integrated and independent tasks
A multitask speaking measure consisting of both integrated and independent tasks is expected to be an important component of a new version of the TOEFL test. This study considered two critical issues concerning score dependability of the new speaking measure: How much would the score dependability be impacted by (1) combining scores on different task types into a composite score and (2) rating each task only once? To answer these questions, gener…
Examining passage-related local item dependence (LID) and measurement construct using Q3 statistics in an EFL reading comprehension test
The purpose of the study reported in this article is to empirically examine passage-related local item dependence (LID) by using an IRT (item response theory)- based LID index called Q 3 in an EFL reading comprehension test, with a special focus on item types as a potentially competing source of LID with passages. In this article, definitions and causes of LID and major LID detection methods including Q 3 statistics are reviewed along with the tw…
