A MIXTURE RASCH MODEL WITH A COVARIATE:A SIMULATION STUDY VIA BAYESIAN MARKOV CHAIN MONTE CARLO ESTIMATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Mixtures of item response theory models have been proposed as a technique to explore response patterns in test data related to cognitive strategies, instructional sensitivity, and differential item functioning (DIF).

Assessing Robustness of the Rasch Mixture Model to Detect Differential Item Functioning - A Monte Carlo Simulation Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Measurement invariance is crucial for an effective and valid measure of a construct. Invariance holds when the latent trait varies consistently across subgroups; in other words, the mean differences among subgroups are only due to true latent ability ...

A mixture IRT growth model for longitudinal data from e-learning environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This poster describes a generalized longitudinal mixture item response theory (IRT) model that allows for detecting latent group differences for item response data obtained from electronic learning (e-learning) environments or other environments that ...

REWEIGHTING DATA IN THE SPIRIT OF TUKEY: USING BAYESIAN POSTERIOR PROBABILITIES AS RASCH RESIDUALS FOR STUDYING MISFIT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A new variant of the iterative "data = fit + residual" data-analytical approach described by Mosteller and Tukey is proposed and implemented in the context of item response theory psychometric models.

A Comparison of Latent Class Analysis and the Mixture Rasch Model: A Cross-Cultural Comparison of 8th Grade Mathematics Achievement in the Fourth International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS-2011) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This study provides a comparison of the results of latent class analysis (LCA) and mixture Rasch model (MRM) analysis using data from the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study - 2011 (TIMSS-2011) with a focus on the 8th-grade mathematics ...

THE MIXTURE DISTRIBUTION POLYTOMOUS RASCH MODEL USED TO ACCOUNT FOR RESPONSE STYLES ON RATING SCALES: A SIMULATION STUDY OF PARAMETER RECOVERY AND CLASSIFICATION ACCURACY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Response styles presented in rating scale use have been recognized as an important source of systematic measurement bias in self-report assessment. People with the same amount of a latent trait may be a victim of a biased test score due to the construct ...

Typology of Ideal Personality: Applicant Perspective In Job Selection Setting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Previously studies suggest that job applicant fake response on a personality test based on their stereotype of ideal employee. This study explored typology of personality that relied on applicants’ stereotype.

Markov Chain Monte Carlo Estimation of Normal Ogive IRT Models in MATLAB [PDF]

open access: yes
Modeling the interaction between persons and items at the item level for binary response data, item response theory (IRT) models have been found useful in a wide variety of applications in various fields. This paper provides the requisite information and
