About Linda Borger

My main research interests concern educational assessment, national and international large-scale assessments, and test development and validation, with a special focus on language testing and assessment.

Current projects

Exploring English writing proficiency among grade 9 students in Sweden through automated text analysis of national test essays from 2000 to 2022, funded by Marcus and Amalia Wallenberg Foundation. Project leader is Dr. Eva Olsson.

I am also engaged in the development and analysis of National Tests of Foreign Languages – Projektet Nationella prov i främmande språk (NAFS)

My teaching interests include educational assessment, validity theory, measurement theory, and test and instrument construction. I also teach at the PIL Unit in the course Assessment and Examination (PIL303).
