MIMIC Models for Uniform and Nonuniform DIF as Moderated Mediation Models [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 2019 In this article, the authors describe how multiple indicators multiple cause (MIMIC) models for studying uniform and nonuniform differential item functioning (DIF) can be conceptualized as mediation and moderated mediation models. Conceptualizing DIF within the context of a moderated mediation model helps to understand DIF as the effect of some ...
