This text evolved from the TOEFL 2000 project undertaken by the Educational Testing Service in the U.S. in which research teams worked on the development of the new TOEFL test for admissions of foreign students at English-medium universities. Using the TOEFL revision as a case study of test design, 18 American academics and educational testing professionals contribute nine chapters discussing the rationale for a test or its revision, explaining the research and development process, and providing the results of the validation process. Focusing on a single test, the chapters expand on and test principles and approaches to educational measurement, providing an in-depth, integrated perspective on the overall process of test revision. For professionals and graduate students in educational measurement, applied linguistics, and second language acquisition, and other individuals interested in assessment issues.
