de Leeuw, Jan; Verhelst, Norman – Journal of Educational Statistics, 1986
Maximum likelihood procedures are presented for a general model to unify the various models and techniques that have been proposed for item analysis. Unconditional maximum likelihood estimation, proposed by Wright and Haberman, and conditional maximum likelihood estimation, proposed by Rasch and Andersen, are shown as important special cases.

Bijleveld, Catrien C. J. H.; de Leeuw, Jan – Psychometrika, 1991
An alternating least squares method for iteratively fitting the longitudinal reduced-rank regression model is proposed. For social and behavioral science applications, the developed algorithm does not rely on the assumption of multinomial errors and allows for scaling of input and output variables. (SLD)
