A Relation Between a Between-Item Multidimensional IRT Model and the Mixture Rasch Model

open access: closedPsychometrika, 2005
Two generalizations of the Rasch model are compared: the between-item multidimensional model (Adams, Wilson, and Wang, 1997), and the mixture Rasch model (Mislevy & Verhelst, 1990; Rost, 1990). It is shown that the between-item multidimensional model is formally equivalent with a continuous mixture of Rasch models for which, within each class of ...

Measuring Middle Grades Teachers' Understanding of Rational Numbers with the Mixture Rasch Model

open access: closedThe Elementary School Journal, 2010
Abstract We report the development of a multiple-choice instrument that measures the mathematical knowledge needed for teaching arithmetic with fractions, decimals, and proportions. In particular, the instrument emphasizes the knowledge needed to reason about such arithmetic when numbers are embedded in problem situations.

The Impact of Various Class-Distinction Features on Model Selection in the Mixture Rasch Model

open access: closedThe Journal of Experimental Education, 2016
ABSTRACTThe purpose of the current study is to examine the performance of four information criteria (Akaike's information criterion [AIC], corrected AIC [AICC] Bayesian information criterion [BIC], sample-size adjusted BIC [SABIC]) for detecting the correct number of latent classes in the mixture Rasch model through simulations.

Applying a Mixture Rasch Model‐Based Approach to Standard Setting

Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2023
AbstractThe subjective aspect of standard‐setting is often criticized, yet data‐driven standard‐setting methods are rarely applied. Therefore, we applied a mixture Rasch model approach to setting performance standards across several testing programs of various sizes and compared the results to existing passing standards derived from traditional ...

Mixture Distribution Rasch Models

1995
This chapter deals with the generalization of the Rasch model to a discrete mixture distribution model. Its basic assumption is that the Rasch model holds within subpopulations of individuals, but with different parameter values in each subgroup. These subpopulations are not defined by manifest indicators, rather they have to be identified by applying ...
