摘要：AbstractThis paper presents the conceptual framework and the methodology for a validation study on the interpretation and use of the 2008 University Entrance Examination English test scores in selecting students for the English Department of the College of Foreign Languages, Vietnam National University. The study employs Messick (1989)’s unified validation framework and utilizes multiple sources of data, including the test content, test-takers’ item responses and reported scores, and admitted students’ first-year achievement results. Methods to analyze the data comprise content analysis, Rasch modeling and path analysis. This study, once completed, will have manifold significant implications in the fields of English language teaching, testing and validation.
