Direct linkPadgett, R. Noah; Morgan, Grant B. – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2020
The "extended Rasch modeling" (eRm) package in R provides users with a comprehensive set of tools for Rasch modeling for scale evaluation and general modeling. We provide a brief introduction to Rasch modeling followed by a review of literature that utilizes the eRm package. Then, the key features of the eRm package for scale evaluation…

Ames, Allison J.; Leventhal, Brian C.; Ezike, Nnamdi C. – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2020
Data simulation and Monte Carlo simulation studies are important skills for researchers and practitioners of educational and psychological measurement, but there are few resources on the topic specific to item response theory. Even fewer resources exist on the statistical software techniques to implement simulation studies. This article presents…

Yang, Ji Seung; Zheng, Xiaying – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2018
The purpose of this article is to introduce and review the capability and performance of the Stata item response theory (IRT) package that is available from Stata v.14, 2015. Using a simulated data set and a publicly available item response data set extracted from Programme of International Student Assessment, we review the IRT package from…

Liang, Tie; Han, Kyung T.; Hambleton, Ronald K. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 2009
This article discusses the ResidPlots-2, a computer software that provides a powerful tool for IRT graphical residual analyses. ResidPlots-2 consists of two components: a component for computing residual statistics and another component for communicating with users and for plotting the residual graphs. The features of the ResidPlots-2 software are…

Pae, Hye K.; Greenberg, Daphne; Morris, Robin D. – Language Assessment Quarterly, 2012
The aim of this study was to apply the Rasch model to an analysis of the psychometric properties of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test--III Form A (PPVT--IIIA) items with struggling adult readers. The PPVT--IIIA was administered to 229 African American adults whose isolated word reading skills were between third and fifth grades. Conformity of…

Nering, Michael L., Ed.; Ostini, Remo, Ed. – Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2010
This comprehensive "Handbook" focuses on the most used polytomous item response theory (IRT) models. These models help us understand the interaction between examinees and test questions where the questions have various response categories. The book reviews all of the major models and includes discussions about how and where the models…

Thissen, David; And Others – 1984
This report documents a computer program for simulation evaluation of item response theory (IRT) ability estimators. This Honeywell DPS version is a very slight modification of the program originally developed in FORTRAN-77 on a DEC VAX 11/780. The model of the world simulated by the program involves a unidimensional test in which the probability…

Phillips, Gary W. – 1983
Ways in which the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) can be used to perform some Rasch analyses are described in detail. It is shown how SPSS and a set of item calibrations can be used to estimate person abilities, standard errors of measurement, test characteristic curve, test information curve, classification consistency on a…
