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

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).

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 ...

Mokken scaling of the Myocardial Infarction Dimensional Assessment Scale (MIDAS)

Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice, 2010
AbstractAims  The purpose of this study was to examine the hierarchical and cumulative nature of the 35 items of the Myocardial Infarction Dimensional Assessment Scale (MIDAS), a disease‐specific health‐related quality of life measure.Method  Data from 668 participants who completed the MIDAS were analysed using the Mokken Scaling Procedure, which is a

On the Practical Consequences of Misfit in Mokken Scaling. [PDF]

Appl Psychol Meas, 2020
Mokken scale analysis is a popular method to evaluate the psychometric quality of clinical and personality questionnaires and their individual items. Although many empirical papers report on the extent to which sets of items form Mokken scales, there is less attention for the effect of violations of commonly used rules of thumb.
