DEFINITION OF ESP TESTS - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Testees must produce language.
      - Greater attention is paid to the social role of the testee in real life and the detailed specifications of this role. The latter is based on oral interaction.
      - The observation of behaviors reflect real-life communication and evaluation schemes.
  - - - All tests have " a purpose ", in testing ESP, the notion of specificity distinguishes these tests from those with more general purposes (Douglas, 2000).
      - Each study or professional field has linguistic features of vocabulary, semantics, syntax, rhetoric, pragmatics and sociolinguistics => allow professionals to speak more precisely
      - This language precision distinguishes specific language use from general use and serves as the main argument in favour of ESP tests.
