Direct linkGlockner-Rist, Angelika; Hoijtink, Herbert – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2003
Both structural equation modeling (SEM) and item response theory (IRT) can be used for factor analysis of dichotomous item responses. In this case, the measurement models of both approaches are formally equivalent. They were refined within and across different disciplines, and make complementary contributions to central measurement problems…
