Doing less but getting more: Improving forced-choice measures with Item Response Theory [PDF]
Forced-choice tests, despite being resistant to response biases and showing good operational validities, have psychometric problems if scored traditionally. These questionnaires are generally longer than their normative counterparts, and more cognitively

Contributions to Mokken's nonparametric item response theory [PDF]
In this study, the item response models proposed by Mokken (1971) are discussed, and further developed. In these item response models the relation between observable response behavior on an item and latent characteristics of persons and items is ...
