Innovations in Measurement: Visual Analog Scales and Retrospective Pretest Self-Report Designs
Actualidades en Psicología, 2016 The authors discuss limitations of two popular measurement procedures, the Likert scale and conventional pretest-posttest self-report design. Both techniques have limits and yet are often combined, leading to restricted fidelity for measuring change. The

Evaluating the Magnitude of Differential Item Functioning in Polytomous Items [PDF]
Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 1994 Several recent studies have investigated the application of statistical inference procedures to the analysis of differential item functioning (DIF) in polytomous test items that are scored on an ordinal scale. Mantel’s extension of the Mantel-Haenszel test is one of several hypothesis-testing methods for this purpose.

Multidimensional Componential Item Response Theory Models for Polytomous Items [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 2001 A framework for modeling componential data using item response theory models for polytomous items is presented. This framework models response accuracies on complex cognitive tasks, which are decomposed in terms of more basic elements (components), such as knowledge structures, cognitive processes, and strategies.

Computerized Adaptive Testing With Polytomous Items [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 1995 Polytomous item response theory models and the research that has been conducted to investigate a variety of possible operational procedures for polytomous model-based computerized adaptive testing (CAT) are reviewed. Studies that compared polytomous CAT systems based on competing item response theory models that are appropriate for the same measurement
