Dear R-users, I'd like to announce the new version of package 'ltm' for Item Response Theory analysis. The function grm() (along with supporting methods, i.e., anova, margins, factor.scores, etc.) has been added for fitting the Graded Response Model for ordinal polytomous manifest variables. An extra feature of the plot method for classes 'grm', 'ltm' and 'rasch' is the possibility to plot Item or Test Information Curves. You may find a more detailed description of the new features of the package in the CHANGES file. Future plans include development of functions for the three-parameter logistic model. Any kind of feedback (questions, suggestions, bug-reports, etc.) is more than welcome.
