The present study used multi-faceted Rasch measurement to explore the characteristics and bias patterns of non-native raters when they scored L2 writing tasks. Three raters scored 254 writing tasks written by Korean university students on two topics adapted from the TOEFL Test of Written English (TWE). The written products were assessed using a five-category rating scale (Content, Organization, Language in Use, Grammar, and Mechanics). The raters only showed a difference in severity with regard to rating categories but not in task types. Overall, the raters scored Grammar most harshly and Organization most leniently. The results also indicated several bias patterns of ratings with regard to the rating categories and task types. In rater-task bias interactions, each rater showed recurring bias patterns in their rating between two writing tasks. Analysis of rater-category bias interaction showed that the three raters revealed biased patterns across all the rating categories though they were relatively consistent in their rating. The study has implications for the importance of rater training and task selection in L2 writing assessment.

제품의 융합과 그 사용 환경의 복잡화로 인하여 다양한 감각을 활용해서 제품과 교감하는 다중 인터페이스의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 전통적이고 일반적인 정보의 습득에는 시각이 압도적으로 많이 활용되었으나 디지털 네트워크 기술을 기반으로 발달할 미래 정보 사회에서는 보다 편리하고 합리적인 제품의 사용을 위하여 다양한 감각의 활용이 요구될 것이다. 정보 전달에 있어서 시각과 더불어 점차적으로 활용 가능성이 높아지고 있는 청각은 그 쓰임새가 더욱 넓어지고 또한 다양한 방식으로 발전될 것이다. 이러한 배경을 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 정보의 전달에서 사용되는 문자언어와 음성언어의 특성과 그에 대한 반응에 있어서 남성과 여성의 차이점의 비교분석에 관한 연구가 수행되었다. 이를 위하여 일단 언어를 구성하는 여러 가지 요소에 대한 문헌자료의 연구를 수행하였다. 이어서 시각과 청각의 특성을 검토한 후 선행 연구를 기반으로 하여 적절한 실험이 설계 및 수행되었다. 수행된 실험은 객관적인 분석방법을 통하여 실험 결과가 검토되었다. 금번 연구의 결과로는 첫째, 문자언어에 대한 반응 시간이 음성언어에 대한 그것보다 짧다는 것, 둘째 각 자극에 대한 반응에 있어서 남녀간의 차이가 존재한다는 것, 셋째, 시각이 청각에 비하여 선택적인 측면에서 절대적 우위를 점하지 못한다는 점등을 들 수 있다. 이번 연구를 기반으로 하여 보다 다양한 감각에 대한 폭 넓은 연구 방법의 개발이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

This study is a survey of collection development policies in the 40 university libraries among 42 in Korea as of 1984. The survey used a questionnaire with 36 questions concerning the basic elements of the collection development policy. The survey results revealed many problems demanding correction. The measures to correct the problems in the university libraries are as follows. 1. It is desirable that the libraries should have a collection development policy statement written and adopted for the systematic collection building. 2. It is advisable that the libraries should include a function of the materials selection among other various functions of the Library Committee for the purpose of informing administrators of the goals of the libraries and the validity of the budgetary allocation. 3. It is desirable that each library should organize the Collection Development Committee for minimizing the possibility of personal bias on the part of the individual selectors. 4. It is advisable that the primary responsibility for materials selection should be delegated as follows: for the materials for faculty research, to the faculty members; for the other collections, to the professional staff of each department; for the final review of whether or not to purchase, to the Collection Development Committee. 5. It is desirable for the purchase priority of materials to be set up in accordance with the order of 6 levels of collection development. 6. It is advisable that the libraries should, as top priority, purchase materials in direct su n.0, pport of the undergraduate and graduate academic programs, and in subject matter areas other than languages and literature, Korean materials should have not only the higher priority than the foreign language materials, but also maintain the comprehensive collection level. 7. It is desirable that the special collections should be purchased by special funds from the authority, and the special collections librarian should have the responsibility of the materials selection under the advice of the faculty members relating to the subject area. 8. It is advisable that duplicate copies should be bought only for high use items, but for reserve books, by the program enrollment, and textbooks should not be bought in general, except as su n.0, pplemental materials for course work in which they are necessary and heavily used. 9. It is reasonable that the material budget should be distributed as follows: by the ratio for distributing funds, about 60-70% for the library and 30-40% for departments; by the type of materials, about 50% for books, 40% for periodicals and 10% for other materials, or when not bought other materials, about 50-60% for books and 40-50% for periodicals. In addition, it is desirable that undergraduate class enrollment, graduate class enrollment, undergraduate majors, graduate majors, average book cost in the discipline, number of faculty, and use rate by subject should be considered as the factors for the allocation of funds by department, and special consideration should be given to newly-founded departments so the library holdings can be adequate to su n.0, pport them.
