KernSmoothIRT: An R Package allowing for Kernel Smoothing in Item Response Theory
Item Response Theory (IRT) models enable researchers to evaluate test or survey subjects and questions simultaneously to more accurately judge the difficulty and quality of the test as well as the strength of each subject. Most IRT analyses use parametric models, often without satisfying the necessary assumptions of these models. The KernSmoothIRT package uses kernel smoothing from Ramsay (1991...
متن کاملItem response theory for measurement validity
Item response theory (IRT) is an important method of assessing the validity of measurement scales that is underutilized in the field of psychiatry. IRT describes the relationship between a latent trait (e.g., the construct that the scale proposes to assess), the properties of the items in the scale, and respondents' answers to the individual items. This paper introduces the basic premise, assum...
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 کاملSelection the best Method of Equating Using Anchor-Test Design in Item Response Theory
Explaining the problem. The equating process is used to compare the scores of the two different tests with the same theme. The goal of this research is finding the best method of equating data using Logistic model. Method. we are using the data of Ph.D. test in Statistic major for two consecutive years 92 and 93. For analyzing, we are specifically using the tests of Statistics major ...
