Language analysis, measurement, assessment, and testing

Language, analyzed.

Lingua Analytica is an applied-linguistics research and development practice, where language assessment, technology, and innovation meet. We are experts and consultants — applied linguists and measurement scientists — helping educators, researchers, and institutions design, build, and defend the instruments by which language is measured.

What we do

📏

Instrumentation & measurement design

Test and task design grounded in theory and built on evidence-centered design. Construct definition, task specifications, rubric design, and annotation guidelines — the instruments and decisions a measurement argument must support, defined up front.

⚙️

Automated content generation

Automated generation of language-assessment content, in particular: tasks, prompts, and stimulus material designed to elicit evidence of the construct — engineered to be fair, comparable, and defensible, not just produced at scale.

📊

Data analysis

Linguistic and psychometric analysis of data — from qualitative corpus and discourse work to quantitative modeling. Approaches include NLP, CTT, IRT, G-Theory, and SEM.

🔍

Validity research

Gathering evidence to support an interpretive argument connecting test performance to the decisions drawn from it.

Our mission

To advance solutions to make communication more accessible worldwide.

Current projects

A set of AI-assisted tools for analyzing written and spoken language.
