Continuation ratio model for polytomous responses with censored like latent classes
(Springer, 2023)
Polytomous item responses are prevalent in background or context questionnaires of International large-scale assessments (ILSA). Responses to these types of instruments can vary in their symmetry or skewness. Zero inflation ...
On the Relationship Between Differential Item Functioning and Item Difficulty: An Issue of Methods? Item Response Theory Approach to Differential Item Functioning
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2012)
The relationship between differential item functioning (DIF) and item difficulty on the SAT is such that more difficult items tended to exhibit DIF in favor of the focal group (usually minority groups). These results were ...
Efficient and Robust Model Benchmarks with Item Response Theory and Adaptive Testing
Progress in predictive machine learning is typically measured on the basis of performance comparisons on benchmark datasets. Traditionally these kinds of empirical evaluation are carried out on large numbers of datasets, ...
Continuation Ratio Model for Polytomous Items Under Complex Sampling Design
(Springer Cham, 2022)
The use of polytomous items as part of background or context questionnaires and complex sampling designs are two features common in international large-scale assessments (ILSA). Popular choices to model polytomous items ...
Modeling of the UCLA Loneliness Scale According to the Multidimensional Item Response Theory
(Springer, 2022-03)
The authors of the University of California Los Angeles Loneliness Scale (UCLA-LS) have considered its structure to be unidimensional. Nevertheless, it has been repeatedly found that response direction can generate groupings ...
Funcionamento diferencial do item no Inventário de Depressão Beck
(Associação Brasileira de Pós-Graduação em Saúde Coletiva - ABRASCOSão Paulo, 2015-01)
INTRODUCTION:There are several studies showing the presence of Differential Item Functioning (DIF) in some items of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), when comparing men and women. The presence of a large number of items ...
Estudo comparativo de métodos de estimação do modelo de resposta gradual para dados de burnout em enfermeiras
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosUFSCarPrograma Interinstitucional de Pós-Graduação em Estatística - PIPGEsCâmpus São Carlos, 2020-04-27)
The graded response model is an Item Response Theory (IRT) model where items admit a polytomous response widely known in the literature. The motivation for this study comes from a data set which belongs to the RN4CAST ...
How Often Is the Misfit of Item Response Theory Models Practically Significant?
(National Council on Measurement in Education, 2014)
Standard 3.9 of the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (1999) demands evidence of model fit when item response theory (IRT) models are employed to data from tests. Hambleton and Han (2005) and Sinharay ...
