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 کاملBayesian Estimation and Model Choice in Item Response Models
Item response models are essential tools for analyzing results from many placement tests. Such models are used to quantify the probability of correct response as a function of unobserved examinee ability and other parameters explaining the diiculty and the discriminatory power of the questions in the test. Some of these models also incorporate a threshold parameter for the probability of the co...
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 کاملA NEW APPROACH FOR PARAMETER ESTIMATION IN FUZZY LOGISTIC REGRESSION
Logistic regression analysis is used to model categorical dependent variable. It is usually used in social sciences and clinical research. Human thoughts and disease diagnosis in clinical research contain vagueness. This situation leads researchers to combine fuzzy set and statistical theories. Fuzzy logistic regression analysis is one of the outcomes of this combination and it is used in situa...
متن کاملA new item response theory model to adjust data allowing examinee choice
In a typical questionnaire testing situation, examinees are not allowed to choose which items they answer because of a technical issue in obtaining satisfactory statistical estimates of examinee ability and item difficulty. This paper introduces a new item response theory (IRT) model that incorporates information from a novel representation of questionnaire data using network analysis. Three sc...
