Correspondence of verbal descriptor and numeric rating scales for pain intensity: an item response theory calibration.
BACKGROUND Assessing pain intensity in older adults is critical and challenging. There is debate about the most effective way to ask older adults to describe their pain severity, and clinicians vary in their preferred approaches, making comparison of pain intensity scores across settings difficult. METHODS A total of 3,676 residents from 71 community nursing homes across eight states were ask...
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...
متن کاملRheumatoid 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...
