Rheumatoid arthritis, item response theory, Blom transformation, and mixed models
We studied rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in the North American Rheumatoid Arthritis Consortium (NARAC) data (1499 subjects; 757 families). Identical methods were applied for studying RA in the Genetic Analysis Workshop 15 (GAW15) simulated data (with a prior knowledge of the simulation answers). Fifty replications of GAW15 simulated data had 3497 +/- 20 subjects in 1500 nuclear families. Two new st...
متن کاملRandomized Item Response Theory Models
The randomized response (RR) technique is often used to obtain answers on sensitive questions. A new method is developed to measure latent variables using the RR technique because direct questioning leads to biased results. Within the RR technique is the probability of the true response modeled by an item response theory (IRT) model. The RR technique links the observed item response with the tr...
متن کاملClassification Accuracy of Mixed Format Tests: A Bi-Factor Item Response Theory Approach
Mixed format tests (e.g., a test consisting of multiple-choice [MC] items and constructed response [CR] items) have become increasingly popular. However, the latent structure of item pools consisting of the two formats is still equivocal. Moreover, the implications of this latent structure are unclear: For example, do constructed response items tap reasoning skills that cannot be assessed with ...
متن کاملDeveloping and Measuring IS Scales Using Item Response Theory
Information Systems (IS) research frequently uses survey data to measure the interplay between technological systems and human beings. Researchers have developed sophisticated procedures to build and validate multi-item scales that measure latent constructs. Most studies use classical test theory (CTT), which suffers from several theoretical shortcomings. We discuss these problems and present i...
متن کاملBeyond Majority Voting: Generating Evaluation Scales using Item Response Theory
We introduce Item Response Theory (IRT) from psychometrics as an alternative to majority voting to create an IRT gold standard (GSIRT ). IRT describes characteristics of individual items in GSIRT their difficulty and discriminating power and is able to account for these characteristics in its estimation of human intelligence or ability for an NLP task. In this paper, we evaluated IRT’s model-fi...
