A Group Fit Statistic for the Multilevel Item Response Model
Abstract Aberrant behaviors among test‐takers in large‐scale assessments are often more prevalent within specific groups or testing sites. While various techniques have been developed to detect individual‐level test‐takers' aberrant behaviors, research in detecting those behaviors at the group level is rare. We propose a group fit statistic lz2$ l_{z2}$

Between 1995 and 2019, stocks of domestic U.S. firms with the most negative sensitivity to aggregate storm losses earned an annual excess‐return spread of more than 6 percentage points relative to those with the most positive sensitivity, a difference not ...
