A Posterior Predictive Model Checking Method Assuming Posterior Normality for Item Response Theory
This study investigated the violation of local independence assumptions within unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models. Bayesian posterior predictive model checking (PPMC) methods are increasingly being used to investigate multidimensionality in IRT models. The current work proposes a PPMC method for evaluating local dependence in IRT models that are estimated …
