Version 1.1 of the MiscPsycho package had been uploaded to CRAN. The package has been updated to include the following: 1) The irt.ability() function that estimates examinee ability given a set of item parameters. The function is very general and can be used to estimate ability when there are only dichotomous items (1-, 2-, or 3PL), only polytomous items (generalized partial credit model), or a

I am teaching myself R for use in Psych research. I don't understand the error message I am getting or how to fix it. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated df1=read.table("fastfood.txt", header=TRUE); df1 > > c(t(as.matrix(df1))) > > r = c(t(as.matrix(df1))) # response data > > r > f=c("item1","item2", "item3") > k=3 >

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

Hello, I'm switching over from SAS to R and am having trouble merging data frames. The data frames have several columns with the same name, and each has a different number of rows. Some of the values are missing from cells with the same column names in each data frame. I had hoped that when I merged the dataframes, every column with the same name would be merged, with the value in a complete

Hello, I have two data frames. One is my dependent variable and the other is my independent variable. For each row I'd like to split the independent variable into fractiles (25 or more) and calculate the average value of the dependent variable. Then I would like to plot the average of the averages for each row for each fractile. If possible, I'd like to have the option to 1) define the

Hi all, I have a data.frame I received with data that look like this (comma separated strings in last row): ID Shop Items ID1 A1 item1, item2, item3 ID2 A2 item4, item5 ID3 A1 item1, item3, item4 But I would like to unbind the strings in col(2) items so that it will look like this: ID Shop Items ID1 A1 item1 ID1 A1 item2 ID1 A1 item3 ID2 A2 item4 ID2 A2 item5 ID3 A1 item1 ID3 A1 item3 ID3 A1

I'm performing item response theory with eRm packages I am excluding the persons that doesn't fit in the infit/outfit persons. for that I created a condition. then I have to create a new subset or matrix but with the condition. So: ORIGINAL matrix<-cbind(item1, item2, item3, item4) IF I PERFORM A head(matrix) item1 item2 item3 item4 3 2 3 1 3 1

Hi, I have a question about reformatting data. It looks like it should be simple, but I've been working at it for awhile now and it's about time I ask for help. My data look like this: ITEM VALUE STEP item1 A first item2 C first item2 D second item1 A second item3 A first item3 B second item3 A third I just want to transform

Hi All, Apologies if this has been answered somewhere else, but I have been searching for an answer all day and not been able to find one. I am trying to plot a path diagram for a CFA I have run, I have installed Rgraphviz and run the following: pathDiagram(cfa, min.rank='item1, item2, item3, item4, item5, item6, item7, item8, item9, item10, item11, item12', max.rank='SMP,

Hello All, Eric Langley here with my first post to this list. I am looking to determine if R is suitable for a development project I am working on and if so possibly finding someone proficient in R that would be interested in doing the coding. I would like to preface my inquiry that while I am not a programmer I can communicate in a dialog my objectives. An array of rank ordered data looks like

Hello list, I wonder if anyone might be able to help me troubleshoot an attempt at porting some simple Python code to R. The function below is supposed to take a matrix containing item ratings from various users and, given a vector containing at least 1 rating and 1 missing value, employ a 'weighted slope one' algorithm to predict the missing values. The algorithm itself is fairly

is there a method similar to php''s expload function in ruby. i have a database field that contains an array of items, when i output this field i notice the items are seperated by ''-'' e.g item1-item2-item3. how would i go about putting them back into an array in ruby. for example in PHP i would just do this: $field; // = item1-item2-item3 $field_as_array =

Hi everyone, I''ve just started with Rails and Ruby. I just started to play one of those RPG and to get my feet wet I''m writing an app to keep track of item fusions. So the scoop is that item can be fused with another items to create a higher level item. The higher level items can be fused to create even higher level items ... etc. I''m using MySQL to store the data.

Hi everyone, I''ve tried posting the same question to the list last Friday but somehow did not see it being posted.. I''ve just started with Rails and Ruby.

So the scoop is that item can be fused with another items to create a higher level item. The higher

I am serializing a data object (FooData) into an ActiveRecord column (Foo). I''d like to be able to do delegate methods to the data class if the Foo class doesn''t have that attribute. So instead of: f = Foo.new f.data.item1 I''d like to do: f = Foo.new f.item1 I was hoping that I could add a method_missing method to my Foo class and call methods in the FooData class

Hi. i was wondering if someone could tell me how to pass more than one stylesheet to the stylesheet_link_tag? I can do something like <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''item1'', item2'' %> and it works great. I would like to do <%= stylesheet_link__tag :defaults %> and have defaults be ''item1'', item2. This is similar to the way the

Menu.append_check_item(), like Menu.append(), is supposed to return a reference to the created menu item. Here is a test code which seems to show that this behavior works for append(), but fails for append_check_item(). This is the output I get: % ruby test-menu.rb #<Wx::MenuItem:0xb74c036c> nil Am I missing something or is this a bug? Both menu items are created and work as expected. I

Hi, I have a class ''Menu'' with a method ''addItem''. The method (simplified) looks like this: addItem: function(itemId, text) { this.container.innerHTML += ''<div id="''+itemId+''">''+text+''</div>''; Event.observe(itemId, ''mouseover'',

I'm learning R and am converting some code from SPSS into R. My background is in SAS/SPSS so the vectorization is new to me and I'm trying to learn how to NOT use loops...or use them sparingly. I'm wondering what the most efficient to tackle a problem I'm working on is. Below is an example piece of code. Essentially what it does is set a variable to zero, loop through item
