To vary or not to vary: A flexible empirical Bayes factor for testing variance components
Abstract Random effects are the gold standard for capturing structural heterogeneity, such as individual differences or temporal dependence. Yet testing their presence is difficult because variance components are constrained to be non‐negative, creating a boundary problem. This paper introduces a flexible empirical Bayes factor (EBF) for testing random

Approximating multidimensionality with asymmetric unidimensional IRT models
Abstract Unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models are widely used even in settings where assessment data exhibit subtle forms of multidimensionality. Recent empirical evidence suggests that when item difficulty is associated with dimensionality, asymmetric item characteristic curves (ICCs) emerge in the unidimensional approximation.

Bias and precision in true‐score estimation
Abstract We discuss two approaches to estimating the true score from classical test theory, each with a corresponding measure of uncertainty due to measurement error: the classical method with the standard error of measurement (SEM) and Kelley's method with the standard error of estimation (SEE).
