Publisher Summary This chapter begins with the history of the Rasch models (RM) and also
discusses some basic concepts and properties of the RM. According to Georg Rasch, the …

A Monte Carlo algorithm realizing a family of nonparametric tests for the Rasch model is
introduced which are conditional on the item and subject marginals. The algorithm is based …

Two types of global testing procedures for item fit to the Rasch model were evaluated using
simulation studies. The first type incorporates three tests based on first‐order statistics: van …

Die Bedeutung des Rasch-Modells für die Testkonstruktion steht zwar außer Frage, trotzdem
ist auf gewisse Probleme bei der Analyse eines Itempools nach dem Rasch-Modell …

This paper deals with three studies on the computer-based, automatic generation of algebra
word problems. The cognitive psychology based generative/quality control frameworks of …

The results of three experiments are reported, which prove the testees' profit-aimed faking
behavior in answering personality inventories. The subjects were 60 students of psychology …

The precision of simple difference or “gain” scores is described in terms of their confidence
intervals on the latent trait scale and of significance probabilities under the H₀ of no change …

This study examined the multiple true-false (MTF) test format in second language testing by
comparing multiple-choice (MCQ) and multiple true-false (MTF) test formats in two language …

This chapter provides an overview of the applications of Rasch models (RMs) and their
generalizations in the sport, exercise, and motor domains. More specifically, it covers the …

For the measurement and statistical assessment of individual gain scores based on item
sets that satisfy the assumptions of the Rasch, Rating Scale, or Partial Credit Models, a …
