How did the (old) Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) assess the Chinese
proficiency of non-native speakers of Chinese? What inferences can
be derived from HSK test taker scores, especially from Western test
takers? How difficult is it to learn Chinese according to the HSK?
Thirty years of research have been synthesized into an
argument-based approach for validating the most widespread test for
Chinese as a foreign language. In addition, the author has analyzed
the scores of a sample of over 250 German test takers in order to
investigate how many hours German natives needed on average to
study for reaching a specific HSK level. This work also extensively
discusses validation theory for psychological testing, and it
demonstrates how to put an argument-based approach to validation
into practice.
