Peer reviewedGlas, Cees A. W.; Meijer, Rob R. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 2003
Presents a Bayesian approach to the evaluation of person fit in item response theory (IRT) models. Works the procedure in detail for the three parameter normal ogive model, but shows that the procedure can be generalized to many other IRT models. (SLD)

The effect of person misfit to an item response theory model on a mastery/nonmastery decision was investigated. Furthermore, it was investigated whether the classification precision can be improved by identifying misfitting respondents using person-fit statistics. A simulation study was conducted to investigate the probability of a correct…
