Abstract	Immigrant students' proficiency in their first languages Russian and Turkish is examined in three starting cohorts within the National Educational Panel Study (NEPS). This paper reports the scaling procedure and results for the L1-tests in starting cohort 4, grade 9. The tests developed for this purpose are described and the design of the study is delineated, including the criteria participants had to meet in order to participate in the L1-tests and a brief description of the samples. Subsequently, the results of analyses for the Russian and Turkish L1-test are presented. Preliminary analyses for each test address the exclusion of cases and several descriptive statistics such as relative frequencies of correct responses and of missing responses. With regard to scaling, the applied model is described and item parameters as well as item fit indices are presented. In addition, differential item functioning, distractor analyses, the distribution and reliability of person estimates are reported. Tests of unidimensionality and of item dependencies are also described. Overall, the L1-tests fit the Rasch model well and prove suitable for testing the proficiency of the target population in their first languages Russian and Turkish. (DIPF/Orig.).
