In real-world situations, multidimensional data may appear on large-scale tests or attitudinal surveys. A simple structure, multidimensional model may be used to evaluate the items, ignoring the cross-loading of some items on the secondary dimension. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of structure complexity magnitude of…

The aim of this paper is to provide an introduction of new imputation algorithms for estimating missing values from official statistics in larger data sets of data pre-processing, or outliers. The goal is to propose a new algorithm called IRMI (iterative robust model-based imputation). This algorithm is able to deal with all challenges like…

Most computerized adaptive tests (CATs) have been studied using the framework of unidimensional item response theory. However, many psychological variables are multidimensional and might benefit from using a multidimensional approach to CATs. This study investigated the accuracy, fidelity, and efficiency of a fully multidimensional CAT algorithm…
