متن کاملAssessing IRT Model-Data Fit for Mixed Format Tests
This study examined various model combinations and calibration procedures for mixed format tests under different item response theory (IRT) models and calibration methods. Using real data sets that consist of both dichotomous and polytomous items, nine possibly applicable IRT model mixtures and two calibration procedures were compared based on traditional and alternative goodnessof-fit statisti...
