The phrase "a single competence" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to one specific skill or ability that a person possesses.
Example: "In this role, we are looking for a candidate who excels in a single competence, such as data analysis."
Alternatives: "one skill" or "a specific ability."
First, a competence is always a part of a chain of competences of a competence profile, and not a single competence in itself.
For it, we posit five central elements that help to understand what we mean by SoF, REF and its relation: First, a competence is always a part of a chain of competences of a competence profile, and not a single competence in itself.
However, the definitions and measurements of health literacy are evolving and diverse across countries [ 37], with an increasing trend to measure multidimensional competences rather than a single competence [ 12, 38].
However, people weigh negative information more heavily than positive information when it comes to trustworthiness.12 A single competent act may be seen as a reliable signal of competence, but a single incompetent act is more likely to be dismissed as an outlier.
Knowing that a large knowledge base doesn't necessarily correlate with high-level performance (Gruber & Mohe, 2012) and that for any competence realization people need "to-be-applied" knowledge (Gruber & Mohe, 2012, p. 77), we consider REF as a chain of connected single competences, a kind of competence profile.
Figure 2 presents detailed estimates of current and desired performance as regards single competences taking the example of EPHO 7 (assuring a competent public health and personal health care workforce).
If a test measures a single dimension of L2 competence, the test score (an observed variable) should be subsumed under a single factor of L2 competence (an unobserved latent variable).
For example, a strain with multiple inactivating mutations in several competence genes is likely to have lost competence long before a strain with a single inactivating mutation in one competence gene.
A unitary or unidimensional model: L2 learners have only a single construct of L2 competence, which can explain all of test scores, regardless of skills or knowledge to be measured.
Each viewer rated 192 images on a single trait (attractiveness, trustworthiness, competence), with each pictured identity appearing twice (most and least likely images from one combination of Context/Selection Type).
Against our current expectations, this may give an indication of a single score above which competence is more likely.
