ltm package question
Hello All, I was wondering how I can get the overall Pearson chi^2 test of model fit with its df and p value in the LTM package for the 2PL models. Thanks, -- Davood Tofighi Department of Psychology Arizona State University [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

- factanal scores correlated?
Hi, I wonder why factor scores produced by factanal are correlated, and I'd appreciate any hints from people that may help me to get a deeper understanding why that's the case. By the way: I'm a psychologist used to SPSS, so that question my sound a little silly to your ears. Here's my minimal example: *********************************************** v1 <-

- McNemar with unequal sample sizes
Hi, i need to test the equality of proportions in a paired case, like here: after before + - + 10 14 - 5 53 So usually i use the mcnemar.test(stats). Due to mortality, I now got the problem that my sample sizes in both factors are not equal any more -- there are less cases in the "after" condition. I already learned that Ekbohm (1982) and Marascuilo adressed the problem

factor.scores
The function factor.scores is used with package ltm and others to estimate IRT type scores for various models. It inherits objects of class grm, gpcm and a few others. What I would like to do is to use the factor.scores function, but feed it my own item parameters (from a bifactor model where the 2PL parameters are adjusted for the bifactor structure). Does anybody have an idea of how this might

about IRT simulation
hello R: we have a two-parameter IRT simulation code. The goal is to generate a response matrix.But the "for" part doesn't run. we don't know what is wrong with it. Thanks so much~~~ I <- 10 J <- 5 response <- matrix(0, 10, 5) pij <- function(a,b,theta) { a <- rnorm(J, 0.8, 0.04) a b <- rnorm(J, 0, 1) b theta <- rnorm(I, 0,1) theta for( i in 1:I ) { for(

degrees of freedom extraction
Hello, II used the logLik() function to get the log-likelihood estimate of an object. The function also prints the degrees of freedom. How can I extract the degrees of freedom and assign it to a variable. Below is the output: > logLik(fit2pl) 'log Lik.' -4842.912 (df=36) Thanks, Davood Tofighi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

IRT - Item Information Function: ltm package
Hi Everybody, I have just been introduced to R and have used the ltm package for calibrating items under IRT. I have been able to get the item parameters using the fit function under different models. I am using the 2PL model. I have got the parameters for some 300 items from 15 different tests using the function fit. Now I need to automatically generate tests such that they have atleast a

IRT Likelihood problem
I have the following item response theory (IRT) likelihood that I want to maximize w.r.t. to theta (student ability). L(\theta) = \prod(p(x)) Where p(x) is the 3-parameter logistic model when items are scored dichotomously (x_{ij} = 0 or 1) and p(x) is Muraki's generalized partial credit model when items are scored polytomously (x_{ij} = 0 \ldots J). Now, I wrote the following two functions

DIF Analysis starting from a gpcm class object
Dear useRs, does any of you have suggestions on how to conduct a proper DIF analysis starting from a model of class gpcm (from the wonderful package ltm by prof. Rizopoulos)? difR will handle only dichotomous items, and I have a mix of dicho- and polytomous ones (that's why I chose the partial credit model). I also found the package lordif, but I'm not really sure if that's what I

Protocol for data inclusion in new packages
In the near future I will release MiscPsycho, a package that contains various functions useful for applied psychometricians. I would like to include some data sets for distribution in the package, but have not created any of these on my own, but have used data distributed in other packages such as the LSAT data in the ltm package. Is it appropriate for me to distribute a data set in the package I

IRT ltm function plot for probabilities
Hello, my question is; for a specific item, how can I create a plot with both the empirical probability of correct response and the predicted probability as a function of the mean of the ability intervals (similar to a BILOG plot).

Getting a complete vector of Theta estimates from Package LTM
I am using package LTM to estimate a Rasch model: irtestimates <- rasch(binRasch) I want to get a single vector containing theta estimates for all the rows (individuals) in my data matrix (hopefully in the same order as my data matrix) such that the length of the theta vector = the number of rows (participants) in my data matrix.
