Estimation of a four-parameter item response theory model.
We explore the justification and formulation of a four-parameter item response theory model (4PM) and employ a Bayesian approach to recover successfully parameter estimates for items and respondents. For data generated using a 4PM item response model, overall fit is improved when using the 4PM rather than the 3PM or the 2PM. Furthermore, although estimated trait scores under the various models ...
متن کاملAssessing parameter invariance in item response theory’s logistic two item parameter model: A Monte Carlo investigation
Statistical properties of the ability level estimate ( ) in item response theory (IRT) were investigated through a Monte Carlo investigation, based on data generated with a four cases multifactor design. Dichotomous items and the logistic two-parameter IRT model in a one-dimensional setting have been chosen. The estimation procedure was the marginalized Bayesian item parameters estimation and E...
متن کاملValidity of the three parameter item response theory model for eld test data ITP Research Series
Item response theory is a large sample procedure to estimate item parameters based on individual response strings. However, what happens when the data available to estimate item parameters is small? This situation is common when new assessment items are tried out for inclusion in future operational assessments, commonly called field testing. In field tests, many items are spread out over a fixe...

متن کاملInvestigating the Impact of Item Parameter Drift for Item Response Theory Models with Mixture Distributions
This study investigates the impact of item parameter drift (IPD) on parameter and ability estimation when the underlying measurement model fits a mixture distribution, thereby violating the item invariance property of unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models. An empirical study was conducted to demonstrate the occurrence of both IPD and an underlying mixture distribution using real-worl...
