Detection of Uniform and Nonuniform Differential Item Functioning by Item-Focused Trees [PDF]
Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2016 Detection of differential item functioning (DIF) by use of the logistic modeling approach has a long tradition. One big advantage of the approach is that it can be used to investigate nonuniform (NUDIF) as well as uniform DIF (UDIF). The classical approach allows one to detect DIF by distinguishing between multiple groups.

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.

Differential Item Functioning via Robust Scaling
Psychometrika, 2022 This paper proposes a method for assessing differential item functioning (DIF) in item response theory (IRT) models. The method does not require pre-specification of anchor items, which is its main virtue. It is developed in two main steps: first by showing how DIF can be re-formulated as a problem of outlier detection in IRT-based scaling and then ...
