Estimating the Multilevel Rasch Model: With the lme4 Package [PDF]
Traditional Rasch estimation of the item and student parameters via marginal maximum likelihood, joint maximum likelihood or conditional maximum likelihood, assume individuals in clustered settings are uncorrelated and items within a test that share a ...

A Penalty Approach to Differential Item Functioning in Rasch Models [PDF]
, 2012 A new diagnostic tool for the identification of differential item functioning (DIF) is proposed. Classical approaches to DIF allow to consider only few subpopulations like ethnic groups when investigating if the solution of items depends on the ...

Finetuning Pre‐Trained Language Models for Automatic Assessment of English‐Chinese Interpreting
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent years have seen growing interest in leveraging pre‐trained language models (PLMs) for automatic assessment of spoken‐language performance. Contributing to this emerging line of work, the present study offers the first attempt to finetune two PLMs, GTE‐multilingual and mmBERT, for assessing English‐Chinese interpreting, using over 1700 ...

Modelling missingness with a Rasch-type model
, 2013 In this paper we focus on a model-based approach to the treatment of missing data due to examinees' nonresponse, in the context of Item Response Theory (IRT).

Flexible Rasch Mixture Models with Package psychomix [PDF]
Measurement invariance is an important assumption in the Rasch model and mixture models constitute a flexible way of checking for a violation of this assumption by detecting unobserved heterogeneity in item response data.

Government Formation in the European Union: Parliamentary Confirmation Hearings
JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.Abstract The confirmation hearings of Commissioner‐designates in the European Parliament provide a unique opportunity to study the balance of power between the Council, the Commission and the European Parliament, as well as the role of party politics and overlapping loyalties in the European Union's multilevel system of governance.

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

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sleep benefits memory, but the extend to which this benefit depends on initial memory strength remains heavily debated. We examined whether sleep preferentially stabilises weakly versus strongly encoded declarative memories, and whether classical sleep oscillations contribute to this effect.

Extended Rasch Modeling: The eRm Package for the Application of IRT Models in R [PDF]
Item response theory models (IRT) are increasingly becoming established in social science research, particularly in the analysis of performance or attitudinal data in psychology, education, medicine, marketing and other fields where testing is relevant ...
