  • Assessing Language Skills Using Diagnostic Classification Models: An Example Using a Language Instrument Georgios D. Sideridi Ioannis Tsaousis Khaleel Al-Harbi Psicología cefr language bifactor models Cognitive Diagnostic Models diagnostic Classification Models The primary purpose of the present study is to inform and illustrate, using examples, the use of Diagnostic Classification Models (DCMs) for the assessment of skills and competencies in cognition and academic achievement. A secondary purpose is to compare and contrast traditional and contemporary psychometrics for the measurement of skills and competencies. DCMs are described along the lines of other psychometric models within the Confirmatory Factor Analysis tradition such as the bifactor model and the known mixture models that are utilized to classify individuals into subgroups. The inclusion of interaction terms and constraints along with its confirmatory nature enables DCMs to accurately assess the possession of skills and competencies. The above is illustrated using an empirical dataset from Saudi Arabia (n = 2642), in which language skills are evaluated on how they conform to known levels of competency based on the CEFR (Council of Europe, 2001) using the English Proficiency Test (EPT). 2022 artículo científico 2011-2084 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=299074858010 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2990/299074858010/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2990/299074858010/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2990/299074858010/299074858010.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2990/299074858010/movil 10.21500/20112084.5657 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2990 International Journal of Psychological Research application/pdf Universidad de San Buenaventura International Journal of Psychological Research (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.15
