Feature Pattern Analysis for Polytomous Items
Feature Pattern Analysis (FPA), as a part of the theory of data (Coombs, 1964), can be interpreted as a formal model of some procedures frequently applied in the behavioral and social sciences, e.g., for Guttman scaling, Parallelogram Analysis, Likert scaling, the Semantic Differential, and the Kelly Grid. FPA may also be used as a scaling procedure for nominal and ordinal data with qualitative...
متن کاملA Multinomial Error Model for Tests with Polytomous Items∗
This paper introduces a multinomial error model, which models the raw scores from polytomously scored items. The multinomial error model is implemented in this paper for estimating conditional standard errors of measurement and reliability for both raw and scale scores. A simulation study is presented, which suggests that the multinomial conditional standard errors of measurement for the raw an...
متن کاملAdaptive Phenotype Testing for AND/OR Items
The combinatorial group testing problem is concerned with the design of experiments so as to minimize the number of tests needed to find the sets of items responsible for a particular phenotype (an observable property). The traditional group testing problem only considers the OR problem, i.e. the phenotype appears as long as one of the responsible items exists. In this paper, we introduce the p...
متن کاملBayesian Computerized Adaptive Testing
Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) comes with many advantages. Unfortunately, it still is quite expensive to develop and maintain an operational CAT. In this paper, various steps involved in developing an operational CAT are described and literature on these topics is reviewed. Bayesian CAT is introduced as an alternative, and the use of empirical priors is proposed for estimating item and per...
متن کاملLatent class models for testing monotonicity and invariant item ordering for polytomous items.
Two assumptions that are relevant to many applications using item response theory are the assumptions of monotonicity (M) and invariant item ordering (IIO). A latent class model is proposed for ordinal items with inequality constraints on the class-specific item means. This model is used as a tool for testing for violations of M and IIO. A Gibbs sampling scheme is used for estimating the model ...
