Title: IRT Separate Calibration Linking Methods
Description: This package uses item response theory methods to compute
linking constants and conduct chain linking of unidimensional
or multidimensional tests for multiple groups under a common
item design. The unidimensional methods include the Mean/Mean,
Mean/Sigma, Haebara, and Stocking-Lord methods for dichotomous
(1PL, 2PL and 3PL) and/or polytomous (graded response, partial
credit/generalized partial credit, nominal, and multiple-choice
model) items. The multidimensional methods include the
Reckase-Martineau method and extensions of the Haebara and
Stocking-Lord method using a single dilation parameter,
multiple dilation parameters, or the Oshima, Davey, & Lee
approach for multidimensional extensions of all the
unidimensional dichotomous and polytomous item response models.
The package also includes functions for importing item and/or
ability parameters from common IRT software and ploting item
characteristic/category curves or surfaces, vector plots, and
comparison plots for examining parameter drift.
