About this file
This technical exhibit provides detailed specifications for test development across reading and listening assessments for the Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT5). The exhibit outlines requirements for different Interagency Language Roundtable (ILR) proficiency levels (06-40), specifying the number of items required and maximum length constraints.
For reading tests, requirements range from Level 06 (1 item, 60-word maximum) to Level 40 (4-5 items, 550-word maximum). Listening test specifications span from Level 06 (1 item, 20/30 seconds for mono/dialogue) to Level 40 (2-3 items, 140/160 seconds). The document also shows a shift in content area distribution requirements between old and new specifications, notably reducing Social/cultural content from 20-30% to 5-15% and increasing Geography content from 5-15% to 15-25%, while maintaining consistent percentages for Military/security (20-30%), Economic/Political (15-25%), and Science/Technology (15-25%) categories.
