Mokken Scale Analysis Using Hierarchical Clustering Procedures [PDF]

Applied Psychological Measurement, 2004
Mokken scale analysis (MSA) can be used to assess and build unidimensional scales from an item pool that is sensitive to multiple dimensions. These scales satisfy a set of scaling conditions, one of which follows from the model of monotone homogeneity. An important drawback of the MSA program is that the sequential item selection and scale construction
