Tang, Huixing – 1994
A method is presented for the simultaneous analysis of differential item functioning (DIF) in multi-factor situations. The method is unique in that it combines item response theory (IRT) and analysis of variance (ANOVA), takes a simultaneous approach to multifactor DIF analysis, and is capable of capturing interaction and controlling for possible…

Huck, Schuyler W.; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1981
Believing that examinee-by-item interaction should be conceptualized as true score variability rather than as a result of errors of measurement, Lu proposed a modification of Hoyt's analysis of variance reliability procedure. Via a computer simulation study, it is shown that Lu's approach does not separate interaction from error. (Author/RL)
