N2 - Teachers need to be able to assess students’ learning outcomes accurately. While teachers’ assessment competencies have long been conceptualised solely as accuracy of assessments, recent research also focusses on situation-specific processes. However, conceptualising and assessing such processes reliably is still a challenge. We analysed 76 pre-service teachers’ diagnostic activities during task-based assessments in a digital simulation. Categories of diagnostic activities were derived from a model of scientific reasoning and argumentation. Participants mostly evaluated the available evidence and rarely stated hypotheses or drew conclusions. There were pronounced individual differences in the frequencies of these activities. The results provide a basis for individualising support of pre-service teachers’ diagnosing.
