FORTEZA FERNANDEZ, Rafael  and  GUNASHEKAR, Paul. Modelo socio-psicolingüístico para el diagnóstico de la habilidad expresión escrita en la enseñanza del inglés con fines específicos. ACIMED [online]. 2009, vol.20, n.6, pp.141-160. ISSN 1024-9435.

The teaching learning process of writing in English for Specific Purposes is influenced by factors which go beyond the environment of the classroom. These factors, identified as variables, have sociolinguistic, psychological and didactic nature. The present study uncovers some of the most outstanding variables and presents a new model for the continued diagnostic testing in the formation of writing skill in academic settings. The model is presented in variables which form new dimensions while testing takes place in loops, all of which giving rise to new regularities for this type of pedagogical activity.

Keywords : English for specific purposes; diagnostic testing; academic settings.
