A new method for detecting differential item functioning in the Rasch model [PDF]

, 2010
Differential item functioning (DIF) can lead to an unfair advantage or disadvantage for certain subgroups in educational and psychological testing. Therefore, a variety of statistical methods has been suggested for detecting DIF in the Rasch model.

Detection of Uniform and Non-Uniform Differential Item Functioning by Item Focussed Trees [PDF]

, 2015
Detection of differential item functioning by use of the logistic modelling approach has a long tradition. One big advantage of the approach is that it can be used to investigate non-uniform DIF as well as uniform DIF.
