《語言測試》是一份國際同行評議期刊，發(fā)表有關(guān)語言測試和評估的原創(chuàng)研究。自1984年以來，它以涵蓋理論問題、實(shí)證研究和評論的高影響力論文為特色。該雜志的廣泛范圍包括英語和其他語言的第一和第二語言測試和評估，以及使用測試和評估作為研究和評估工具。許多文章也有助于方法創(chuàng)新和國際上測試和評估的實(shí)際改進(jìn)。此外，《華爾街日報(bào)》還發(fā)表了涉及政策問題的意見書，包括在教育、就業(yè)和國際流動等不同領(lǐng)域使用語言測試和高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)決策評估。該雜志歡迎提交關(guān)于語言測試中倫理和哲學(xué)問題以及技術(shù)問題的論文。同樣值得關(guān)注的是對語言測試使用的反撥和影響的研究，以及對學(xué)習(xí)評估的突破性使用。此外，該雜志希望發(fā)表復(fù)制研究，以幫助嵌入和擴(kuò)展我們的知識，在該領(lǐng)域的普遍發(fā)現(xiàn)。語言測試致力于鼓勵(lì)跨學(xué)科研究，并希望收到來自不同應(yīng)用語言學(xué)領(lǐng)域、教育測量和其他相關(guān)學(xué)科的理論和方法的提交。

Language Testing is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes original research on language testing and assessment. Since 1984 it has featured high impact papers covering theoretical issues, empirical studies, and reviews. The journal's wide scope encompasses first and second language testing and assessment of English and other languages, and the use of tests and assessments as research and evaluation tools. Many articles also contribute to methodological innovation and the practical improvement of testing and assessment internationally. In addition, the journal publishes submissions that deal with policy issues, including the use of language tests and assessments for high stakes decision making in fields as diverse as education, employment and international mobility. The journal welcomes the submission of papers that deal with ethical and philosophical issues in language testing, as well as technical matters. Also of concern is research into the washback and impact of language test use, and ground-breaking uses of assessments for learning. Additionally, the journal wishes to publish replication studies that help to embed and extend our knowledge of generalisable findings in the field. Language Testing is committed to encouraging interdisciplinary research, and is keen to receive submissions which draw on theory and methodology from different fields of applied linguistics, as well as educational measurement, and other relevant disciplines.
