Rasch Measurement v. Item Response Theory: Knowing When to Cross the Line

2021
When students receive the same score on a test, does that mean they know the same amount about the topic? The answer to this question is more complex than it may first appear. This paper compares classical and modern test theories in terms of how they estimate student ability.

Putting the Alzheimer's cognitive test to the test II: Rasch Measurement Theory

Alzheimer's & Dementia, 2012
BackgroundThe Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale—Cognitive Behavior section (ADAS‐Cog) is the most widely used measure of cognitive performance in AD clinical trials. This key role has rightly brought its performance under increased scrutiny with recent research using traditional psychometric methods, questioning the ADAS‐Cog's ability to adequately ...

The Rasch Model and Conjoint Measurement Theory from the Perspective of Psychometrics

Theory & Psychology, 2008
Kyngdon argues that psychometricians have erroneously claimed the Rasch model to be an instance of representational measurement, because the Rasch model does not map a bona fide empirical relational system (ERS) into a numerical relational system (NRS).

Quality control of an OSCE using generalizability theory and many-faceted Rasch measurement

Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2007
An Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is an effective method for evaluating competencies. However, scores obtained from an OSCE are vulnerable to many potential measurement errors that cases, items, or standardized patients (SPs) can introduce.

Conditional Standard Error of Measurement: Classical Test Theory, Generalizability Theory and Many-Fact Rasch Measurement with Applications to Writing Assessment

2021
Writing assessments often consist of students responding to multiple prompts, which are judged by more than one rater. To establish the reliability of these assessments, there exist different methods to disentangle variation due to prompts and raters, including classical test theory, Many Facet Rasch Measurement (MFRM), and Generalizability Theory (G ...

P035 Patient-reported outcome measures for rheumatoid arthritis disease activity: using Rasch measurement theory to achieve more meaningful measurement

Rheumatology, 2023
Abstract Background/Aims Disease activity (DA) monitoring is a standard of care in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and there is demand for achieving this through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). A systematic review of PROMs for RA DA following COSMIN guidelines demonstrated a lack of sufficient ...

Applying Modern Test Theory in PRO Measure Development: Rasch modelling

2018
Techniques applying classical test theory (CTT), such as item-total correlation analysis, stepwise regression and factor analysis, have been traditionally used in the development and testing of measurement models for PROs (Coste et al. 1997). Item response theory, especially the Rasch model, is an alternative approach and is increasingly being used ...
