The purpose of this study is to examine the language ability of Korean people in various fields of their lives and formulate future language policy based on this knowledge. To achieve this goal, we must first prepare research tools with a sufficient degree of validity and reliability. In this study, research tools were designed based on the results of a 2017 study, and the questions were formulated to reflect the reality with increased accuracy because the previous study was criticized for its inaccurate depiction of reality. In the grammar section, the evaluation framework was significantly revised, and questions were supplemented to determine the language ability of the test-taker during day-to-day conversations. In addition, in the reading section, a digital literacy item was included by establishing its concept and component parts, with the corresponding analysis tools. The stratified sampling method using population distribution statistics was applied to secure the representativeness of the survey respondents. In addition, five variables-sex, age, regional scale, education, and occupational-were set, and samples were extracted to ensure that the survey respondents can be sampled in proportion to the actual population distribution by each variable. The analysis result of the integrated type, which includes both the 가 and 나 types, shows that the average score of respondents'' Korean language ability was 635.7 out of 1,030 in 2018. For specific grade ratings, Level 4 is 13.4%, Level 3 is 44.7%, Level 2 is 34.2%, and Level 1 is 7.6%. Based on the survey results, specific discussions were conducted regarding the preparation and implementation of future surveys and the regularization of the five-year Korean language ability investigation. |
