Large‐Scale Psychometric Assessment and Validation of the Modified COVID‐19 Yorkshire Rehabilitation Scale Patient‐Reported Outcome Measure for Long COVID or Post‐COVID Syndrome [PDF]
J Med VirolABSTRACT The C19‐YRS was the first condition‐specific for long COVID/post‐COVID syndrome. Although the original C19‐YRS evolved to the modified version (C19‐YRSm) based on psychometric evidence, clinical content relevance, as well as feedback from patients and healthcare professionals, it has not been validated through Rasch analysis. The study aim was

The Use of Loglinear Models for Assessing Differential Item Functioning Across Manifest and Latent Examinee Groups [PDF]
, 1990 Loglinear latent class models are used to detect differential item functioning (DIF). These models are formulated in such a manner that the attribute to be assessed may be continuous, as in a Rasch model, or categorical, as in Latent Class Mastery models.
