Multiple Ways to Detect Differential Item Functioning in SAS
Differential item functioning (DIF), as an assessment tool, has been widely used in quantitative psychology, educational measurement, business management, and insurance and healthcare industries. The purpose of DIF analyses is to detect response differences of items in questionnaires, rating scales, or tests across different subgroups (e.g., gender), while controlling for ability level. There a...

Title of Dissertation: EXAMINING DIFFERENTIAL ITEM FUNCTIONING FROM A LATENT CLASS PERSPECTIVE Karen Samuelsen, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation directed by: C. Mitchell Dayton Department of Measurement, Statistics and Evaluation Current approaches for studying differential item functioning (DIF) using manifest groups are problematic since these groups are treated as homogeneous in natur...
متن کاملA penalty approach to differential item functioning in Rasch models.
A new diagnostic tool for the identification of differential item functioning (DIF) is proposed. Classical approaches to DIF allow to consider only few subpopulations like ethnic groups when investigating if the solution of items depends on the membership to a subpopulation. We propose an explicit model for differential item functioning that includes a set of variables, containing metric as wel...
متن کاملUsing Multiple-Variable Matching to Identify EFL Ecological Sources of Differential Item Functioning
Context is a vague notion with numerous building blocks making language test scores inferences quite convoluted. This study has made use of a model of item responding that has striven to theorize the contextual infrastructure of differential item functioning (DIF) research and help specify the sources of DIF. Two steps were taken in this research: first, to identify DIF by gender grouping via l...
متن کاملLatent variable mixture models to test for differential item functioning: a population-based analysis
BACKGROUND Comparisons of population health status using self-report measures such as the SF-36 rest on the assumption that the measured items have a common interpretation across sub-groups. However, self-report measures may be sensitive to differential item functioning (DIF), which occurs when sub-groups with the same underlying health status have a different probability of item response. This...
