Some fundamental issues in item response theory with applications
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe first part of this thesis, Chapter 2 through Chapter 4, explores procedures for assessing latent test dimensionality. In Chapter 2, the structure and theoretical properties of conditional item pair covariances given a latent composite are thoroughly investigated. Such information is useful because estimates of such conditional covariances form the basic building blocks of several important psychometric procedures for assessing multi-dimensionality.
