Peer reviewedAndersen, Erling B. – Psychometrika, 1973
The Rasch model is an item analysis model with logistic item characteristic curves of equal slope, i.e. with constant item discriminating powers. The proposed goodness of fit test is based on a comparison between difficulties estimated from different scoregroups and over-all estimates. (Author)
