Researchers report on how C-test principles were applied in creating the new language tests, with careful attention to language-specific challenges and solutions. The final, five-text C-tests in all languages demonstrated impressive psychometric qualities as well as strong relationships with criterion variables such as learner self-assessments and instructional levels. These test development projects provide new tests for use by foreign language researchers, and they demonstrate innovative and rigorous test development practices in diverse languages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46472366227607,"sku":"9783631742068","price":6544.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783631742068.jpg?v=1766253407","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/developing-c-tests-for-estimating-proficiency-in-foreign-language-research-9783631742068","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
