This volume describes differing approaches to understanding
academic reading ability that have emerged in recent decades and
goes on to develop an empirically-grounded framework for validating
tests of this skill. The framework is then applied to the IELTS
Academic Reading module to investigate a number of different
validity perspectives that reflect the socio-cognitive nature of
any assessment event. The authors demonstrate how a systematic
understanding and application of the framework and its components
can help test developers to operationalise their tests so as to
fulfill the validity requirements for an academic reading test.
