Excerpt from Completion-Test Language Scales
This monograph is the report of an attempt to derive one or more scales for the measurement Of ability along certain lines Closely related to language. NO attempt has been made to define language in any strict sense, and it is entirely possible that some persons may be able to speak the English language and perhaps to write it fairly well without being able to make a very high score on these scales. It may also happen that some indi viduals will be found who score well on these language scales and are yet unable to quote a single rule of English grammar. On the whole, however, it will be found that ability to complete these sentences successfully is very closely related to what is usually called language ability.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a significant contribution to the advancement of language testing and scale methodology. The author provides a detailed account of the development of a series of language scales, known as Language Scale A, which are designed to measure the completion-test ability of children in elementary and high school grades. The author begins by presenting a persuasive rationale for the use of completion tests as a means of assessing language ability. They argue that these tests effectively capture a wide range of language skills, including vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension, making them a valuable tool for educators and researchers alike. The author then describes the process of constructing Language Scale A, which involved carefully selecting and grading a set of sentence-completion items to ensure a consistent increase in difficulty across the scale. The author goes on to provide empirical evidence supporting the validity and reliability of the scale, demonstrating its effectiveness in differentiating between individuals of varying language abilities. This book not only provides a practical tool for language assessment but also offers valuable insights into the nature of language development and the relationship between language and other cognitive abilities. The author's clear and engaging writing style makes this book accessible to a wide audience, ranging from researchers and educators to students and practitioners in the field of language assessment. The implications of this work extend beyond the realm of language testing, offering valuable insights into the complex relationship between language and cognition, making it an indispensable resource for anyone interested in understanding the development and assessment of language abilities.
