| Abstract | This presentation will start with a comparison of classical test theory and item response theory (IRT), where the advantages of the former over the latter will be highlighted. It will be followed by a presentation of a number of both commonly and not-so-commonly encountered IRT models in the literature, which include models for dichotomous, polytomous, multiple-choice, rating, preference, and forced-choice data. General applications of IRT will be then discussed followed by some specific application examples. A brief demonstration of IRT analysis using R packages will follow. Finally, the presentation will conclude with a discussion of cognitive diagnosis models, which can be construed as a specific type of IRT model. |
