Logistic Latent Trait Models with Linear Constraints.

Fischer, Gerhard H.

Psychometrika, v48 n1 p3-26 Mar 1983

Two linearly constrained models based on the Rasch model are discussed. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of unique conditional maximum likelihood estimators are derived. Methods for hypothesis testing within this framework are proposed. (Author/JKS)
