Measure of experimental pain using Rasch analysis

European Journal of Pain, 2007
AbstractMost common instruments used to assess the painfulness of nociceptive stimuli and the perception of such stimuli are ordinal. This property limits arithmetical operations and statistical procedures that can be applied on their numbers. The Rasch methodology provides mathematical procedures for transforming scores on an ordinal scale into ...

Rasch analysis of SF‐Qualiveen in multiple sclerosis

Neurourology and Urodynamics, 2016
BACKGROUNDA 30‐item Qualiveen questionnaire was developed to measure the impact of urinary problems on everyday living in spinal cord injury, and subsequently an 8‐item SF‐Qualiveen was developed for those with multiple sclerosis (MS). The validity of this short form has not been previously examined using modern psychometric techniques, such as the ...

Rasch analysis of professional behavior in medical education

Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2015
The use of students' "consumer feedback" to assess faculty behavior and improve the process of medical education is a significant challenge. We used quantitative Rasch measurement to analyze pre-categorized student comments listed by 385 graduating medical students.

A Rasch analysis of the lumbar spine instability questionnaire

Physiotherapy Theory and Practice, 2019
Purpose: A 2014 study found that the Lumbar Spine Instability questionnaire predicts response to two different types of exercise therapy. This is the first decision tool that has predicted response to exercise for chronic low back pain. The objective of this study was to evaluate the Lumbar Spine Instability questionnaire using Rasch analysis. Methods:

Rasch analysis of anxiety scales in Parkinson's disease

Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 2013
Anxiety is a common non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD). This study analyzed the measurement properties of three frequently used anxiety scales in PD: the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety subscale (HADS-A).The Rasch model was applied to a multicenter ...

Rasch analysis of the carpal tunnel syndrome instrument

Journal of Hand Therapy
The carpal tunnel syndrome instrument (CTSI) is the most widely used patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). However, CTSI is an ordinal-type questionnaire and might have caused misinterpretations of the PROM between surgical outcomes of CTS (Camitz and extra/open carpal tunnel release).This study aims to convert the ...

The Rasch Model for Item Analysis

1987
The so-called Rasch model, now widely employed for item analysis, is only one of a complete family of models described by Rasch in his 1960 text. All may be properly called “Rasch Models” since they share a common feature which Rasch labeled “specific objectivity”. This is a property of most measurement systems which requires that the comparison of any

Loglinear Rasch models for the Analysis of Stability and Change

Psychometrika, 1996
Loglinear unidimensional and multidimensional Rasch models are considered for the analysis of repeated observations of polytomous indicators with ordered response categories. Reparameterizations and parameter restrictions are provided which facilitate specification of a variety of hypotheses about latent processes of change.
