Classification Consistency and Accuracy Indices for Simple Structure MIRT Model

Journal of Educational Measurement, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 663-686, Winter 2025.
Abstract This study investigates the estimation of classification consistency and accuracy indices for composite summed and theta scores within the SS‐MIRT framework, using five popular approaches, including the Lee, Rudner, Guo, Bayesian EAP, and Bayesian MCMC approaches. The procedures are illustrated through analysis of two real datasets and further

Bias-Corrected Root Mean Square Deviation Estimators

Foundations
The root mean square deviation (RMSD) is a widely used item fit statistic in item response models. However, the sample RMSD is known to exhibit positive bias in small samples. To address this, seven alternative bias-corrected RMSD estimators are proposed
