While a large family of unfolding models for Likert-scale response data have been
developed for decades, very few applications of these models have been witnessed in …

Rater effects are commonly observed in rater-mediated assessments. By using item
response theory (IRT) modeling, raters can be treated as independent factors that function …

To address response style or bias in rating scales, forced-choice items are often used to

Likert-type items. For example, some respondents tend to select the extreme categories (eg …

Responding to rating scale items is a multidimensional process, since not only the
substantive trait being measured but also additional personal characteristics can affect the …

Most unfolding item response models for graded-response items are unidimensional. When
there are multiple tests of graded-response items, unidimensional unfolding models become …

Attitude surveys are widely used in the social sciences. It has been argued that the
underlying response process to attitude items may be more aligned with the ideal-point …

In responding to rating scale items, respondents may hold different perspectives on the
