Mokken Scale Analysis for Dichotomous Items Using Marginal Models [PDF]
Psychometrika, 2008 Scalability coefficients play an important role in Mokken scale analysis. For a set of items, scalability coefficients have been defined for each pair of items, for each individual item, and for the entire scale. Hypothesis testing with respect to these scalability coefficients has not been fully developed.

Mokken Scale Analysis in R [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Software, 2007 Mokken scale analysis (MSA) is a scaling procedure for both dichotomous and polytomous items. It consists of an item selection algorithm to partition a set of items into Mokken scales and several methods to check the assumptions of two nonparametric item response theory models: the monotone homogeneity model and the double monotonicity model. First, we

Mokken Scale Analysis: Between the Guttman Scale and Parametric Item Response Theory [PDF]
Political Analysis, 2003 This article introduces a model of ordinal unidimensional measurement known as Mokken scale analysis. Mokken scaling is based on principles of Item Response Theory (IRT) that originated in the Guttman scale. I compare the Mokken model with both Classical Test Theory (reliability or factor analysis) and parametric IRT models (especially with the one ...

New Developments in Mokken Scale Analysis inR [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Software, 2012 Mokken (1971) developed a scaling procedure for both dichotomous and polytomous items that was later coined Mokken scale analysis (MSA). MSA has been developed ever since, and the developments until 2000 have been implemented in the software package MSP (Molenaar and Sijtsma 2000) and the R package mokken (Van der Ark 2007).

Exploring Incomplete Rating Designs With Mokken Scale Analysis. [PDF]
Educ Psychol Meas, 2018 Recent research has explored the use of models adapted from Mokken scale analysis as a nonparametric approach to evaluating rating quality in educational performance assessments. A potential limiting factor to the widespread use of these techniques is the requirement for complete data, as practical constraints in operational assessment systems often ...

Exploring Rating Quality in Rater-Mediated Assessments Using Mokken Scale Analysis [PDF]
Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2016 Mokken scale analysis is a probabilistic nonparametric approach that offers statistical and graphical tools for evaluating the quality of social science measurement without placing potentially inappropriate restrictions on the structure of a data set. In

Exploratory Mokken Scale Analysis as a Dimensionality Assessment Tool [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 2012 The assessment of the number of dimensions and the dimensionality structure of questionnaire data is important in scale evaluation. In this study, the authors evaluate two dimensionality assessment procedures in the context of Mokken scale analysis (MSA), using a so-called fixed lowerbound.
