Chung, Seungwon; Houts, Carrie – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2020
Advanced modeling of item response data through the item response theory (IRT) or item factor analysis frameworks is becoming increasingly popular. In the social and behavioral sciences, the underlying structure of tests/assessments is often multidimensional (i.e., more than 1 latent variable/construct is represented in the items). This review…
