Score generalizability of academic writing tasks: Does one test method fit it all? (2009, methodology): “Before describing these D studies, it is useful to define the purpose of a D study, which is to use the variance components produced in the generalizability study to design a measurement procedure that can minimize the measurement error (Bachman, 2004).”
A closer look at the construct validity of C-tests (2006, methodology): “…and a large-scale assessment procedure that taps all four language skills, constructed sets of linear measures of examinee proficiency using Rasch modelling, and tested hypotheses concerning the constructs measured, building on a confirmatory factor-analytic approach (Kunnan, 1998; Bachman, 2004).”
Discourse synthesis in integrated second language writing assessment (2009, background): “Thus, processes that test takers use to approach various test tasks are a validity-related concern (Bachman, 2002, 2004; Cohen, 2007).”
Bootstrapping in Applied Linguistics: Assessing its Potential Using Shared Data (2014, background): “Statements to this effect are commonly found in introductory statistics textbooks in applied linguistics (Bachman 2004) as well as other domains (Field 2005). According to Larson-Hall and Herrington (2010), however, these claims are only”
Building and Supporting a Case for Test Use (2005, background): “This is particularly true for many large-scale assessments that are used for high-stakes accountability purposes (Koenig & Bachman, 2004).”
Operational Rater Types in Writing Assessment: Linking Rater Cognition to Rater Behavior (2012, methodology): “The analysis of differential rater functioning is called bias analysis (Bachman, 2004; McNamara, 1996).”
An operational definition of the emergence criterion (2007, background): “Here I will tentatively indicate a few ways in which such studies might be conducted, based on indications taken mainly from the language testing literature (e.g. Bachman 1990, 2004; Scholfield 1995; for applications to SLA see Chapelle 1998, Chaudron 2003).”
Textbook trends in teaching language testing (2008, background): “…and Hatch and Lazaraton (1991) dealing with statistics and research design; Shohamy (2001) and possibly the external Pennycook (2001) to handle critical approaches, the ILTA Code of Ethics (2000) presenting the profession’s ethical principles, and Bachman (2004), again dealing with statistics.”
Examining Rater Effects in TestDaF Writing and Speaking Performance Assessments: A Many-Facet Rasch Analysis (2005, background): “…words, rater effects are irrelevant to the construct being assessed through ratings and, thus, threaten the validity of the assessment procedure (Bachman, 2004; Messick, 1989, 1995; Weir, 2005).1 LANGUAGE ASSESSMENT QUARTERLY, 2(3), 197–221 Copyright © 2005, Lawrence Erlbaum Associates,…”
Interacting in pairs in a test of oral proficiency: Co-constructing a better performance (2009, background): “…in the individual format, no significant correlation was found, suggesting that their scores were more similar to each other when they were paired.4 Because significant correlations are not by themselves necessarily meaningful (Bachman, 2004), additional perspectives are needed (Shohamy, 1994).”
Language Assessment Literacy: Implications for Language Teachers (2018, methodology): “The present list is based on conceptual reviews of the literature in lal and personal experience in language assessment courses through information from wellknown language testing textbooks such as Bachman (2004), Fulcher (2010), and others.”
Assessment Literacy for the Language Classroom (2012, background): “Bachman (2004) and Bachman and Kunnan (2005) were reported by users to provide an excellent hands-on approach to statistics, although conceptually difficult in places.”
