On the Choice of the Item Response Model for Scaling PISA Data: Model Selection Based on Information Criteria and Quantifying Model Uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
In educational large-scale assessment studies such as PISA, item response theory (IRT) models are used to summarize students’ performance on cognitive test items across countries.

Linking Item Response Model Parameters. [PDF]

open access: yesPsychometrika, 2016
With a few exceptions, the problem of linking item response model parameters from different item calibrations has been conceptualized as an instance of the problem of test equating scores on different test forms. This paper argues, however, that the use of item response models does not require any test score equating. Instead, it involves the necessity

Validation of response processes in medical assessment using an explanatory item response model [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Medical Education, 2022
Background Response process validation is a crucial source of test validity. The expected cognitive load scale was created based on the reflection of the mental effort by which borderline students solve an item defined by experts. The stem length affects

Regularized Generalized Logistic Item Response Model

open access: yesInformation, 2023
Item response theory (IRT) models are factor models for dichotomous or polytomous variables (i.e., item responses). The symmetric logistic or probit link functions are most frequently utilized for modeling dichotomous or polytomous items. In this article,

Item-Weighted Likelihood Method for Measuring Growth in Longitudinal Study With Tests Composed of Both Dichotomous and Polytomous Items

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
In this paper, a new item-weighted scheme is proposed to assess examinees’ growth in longitudinal analysis. A multidimensional Rasch model for measuring learning and change (MRMLC) and its polytomous extension is used to fit the longitudinal item ...

Examining item compromise: an introduction to deterministic gated item response theory model (DGIRT)

open access: yesJournal of Computer Adaptive Testing in Africa, 2023
The calibration of item parameters (difficulty, discrimination and guessing parameters) estimate may only consider the true and not the cheating abilities of examinees.

Four-Parameter Guessing Model and Related Item Response Models

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2022
Guessing effects frequently occur in testing data in educational or psychological applications. Different item response models have been proposed to handle guessing effects in dichotomous test items.

Introducing the scr-OLBI Examination of a Short Measure for Assessing Burnout Using Item Response Theory

open access: yesPsychological Test Adaptation and Development, 2022
. The Greek version of the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI), used to assess exhaustion and disengagement from work, was analyzed using item response theory analyses to investigate the dimensionality and the psychometric properties of the measure’s ...
