An Investigation Of Chi-Square And Entropy Based Methods Of Item-Fit Using Item Level Contamination In Item Response Theory, William R. Dardick, Brandi A. Weiss
An Investigation Of Chi-Square And Entropy Based Methods Of Item-Fit Using Item Level Contamination In Item Response Theory, William R. Dardick, Brandi A. Weiss
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
New variants of entropy as measures of item-fit in item response theory are investigated. Monte Carlo simulation(s) examine aberrant conditions of item-level misfit to evaluate relative (compare EMRj, X2, G2, S-X2, and PV-Q1) and absolute (Type I error and empirical power) performance. EMRj has utility in discovering misfit.

Fortran 77 and 90 modules (REALPOPS.lib) exist for invoking the 8 distributions estimated by Micceri (1989). These respective modules were created by Sawilowsky et al. (1990) and Sawilowsky and Fahoome (2003). The MicceriRD (Micceri’s Real Distributions) Python package was created because Python is increasingly used for data analysis and, in some cases, Monte Carlo simulations.
