Hello R, I am looking for non-parametric simulation in IRT. Is there any IRT package that does non-parametric simulation? helen L [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear All, does anybody know of a package (working under Linux) for multilevel IRT modelling? I'd love to do this without having to go on WINSTEPS or the like.. thanks for the attention!

Using the grm function (graded response IRT model) in the ltm package I receive the following error: Error: subscript out of bounds for several scales I'd like to examine. Here's a small example that if run a few times will likley produce the error at least once ch<-array(round(runif(50,1,5)),c(10,5)) grm(ch,start.val="random") ## or

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(

Hello colleagues, I am a novice with R and am stuck with an analysis I am trying to conduct. Any suggestions or feedback would be very much appreciated. I am analyzing a data set of psi (ESP) ganzfeld trials. The response variable is binary (correct/incorrect), with a 25% base rate. I've looked around the documentation and other online resources and cannot find how I can correct for

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

An updated version of the package plink has been uploaded to CRAN. This is a major revision that now includes multidimensional models and methods. plink is a package for conducting unidimensional and multidimensional IRT-based test linking using separate calibration methods for multiple groups for single-format or mixed-format common items. The package supports sixteen IRT models and eleven

Hi my friends, I have an issue with ability estimates when running GRM of IRT. I have responses from 242 subjects but got 183 ability estimates. Below is what I did to get the estimates. 1) I have a csv file "P1.csv" and I imported it into R and loaded the "ltm" package by doing: p1<-read.table("P1.csv",header=TRUE,sep=",") library(ltm) 2) I

Dear R users, I hope to explain the concepts of skewness and kurtosis by generating series of distributions with same skewness and different kurtosis or with same kurtosis and different skewness, but it seems that i cannot find the right functions. I have searched the mailing list, but no answers were found. Is it possible to do that in R? Which function could be used? Thanks a lot. --

I wonder whether the functions for skewness and kurtosis in the e1071 package are based on correct formulas. The functions in the package e1071 are: # -------------------------------------------- skewness <- function (x, na.rm = FALSE) { if (na.rm) x <- x[!is.na(x)] sum((x - mean(x))^3)/(length(x) * sd(x)^3) } # -------------------------------------------- and #

Hi: I need to apply the IRT model from Ramsay (1991), He apply the Smoothing Kernel to multiple choice test. Is possible in R?. Thank you, Xavier G. Ordonez Doctoral Student Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Hello R: i work on an IRT simulation research. I've written a code to generate a single dataset.As i will repeat simulating the data 100 times under every condition, how can i write the R code to make it run the single simulation code 100 times and save the generate results each time? Thanks so much~

Dear all members, I am Phd. candidate student at Chulalongkorn U., Thailand. I am interested in expectation maximization algorithm (EM) and multiple imputation (MI) for imputation missing values(missing at random(MAR) and missing not at random (MNAR)) in IRT (3-PL). So, I want to know about package in R or function of EM and MI for simulate this problem I am looking forward your answer.

Hi, in which R-package I could find skewness and kurtosis measures for a distribution? I built some functions: gamma1<-function(x) { m=mean(x) n=length(x) s=sqrt(var(x)) m3=sum((x-m)^3)/n g1=m3/(s^3) return(g1) } skewness<-function(x) { m=mean(x) me=median(x) s=sqrt(var(x)) sk=(m-me)/s return(sk) } bowley<-function(x) { q<-as.vector(quantile(x,prob=c(.25,.50,.75)))

Hello I do not know very much about statistics (and English language too :-( ), then I come in search of a clarification (explanation): I found two distinct results on KURTOSIS and I do not know which of them is the correct one. Any aid will be welcome! klebyn ################ CODE rnorm(1000) -> x library(moments) kurtosis(x) skewness(x) detach("package:moments")

Greetings Everybody: I generated a 1.2MB dta file based on the general social survey with Stata8 for linux. The file can be re-opened with Stata, but when I bring it into R, it says all the values are missing for most of the variables. This dataset is called "morgen.dta" and I dropped a copy online in case you are interested http://www.ku.edu/~pauljohn/R/morgen.dta looks like this

Hi all, Could anyone tell me if there is some package that fits any Item Response Model (further the ltm package)? Regards, Caio --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
