Pairwise Parameter Estimation in Rasch Models
on comparing responses to pairs of items irrespective of other items. The pseudo-likelihood method is comparable to Fischer’s (1974) Minchi method. A simulation study found that the pseudo-likelihood estimates and their (estimated) standard errors were comparable to conditional and marginal maximum likelihood estimates. The method is extended to estimate parameters of the linear logistic test m...
متن کاملPairwise Rasch model item parameter recovery under sparse data conditions
In social science research the occurrence of missing values is a prevalent issue. In addition to that the use of multi-level response formats often results in low cell frequencies, especially under the condition of higher proportions of missing values and small datasets. This in turn may lead to problems for parameter identification in probabilistic item response models, applying the Conditiona...
متن کاملParameter Estimation in Pairwise Markov Fields
Hidden Markov fields (HMF), which are widely applied in various problems arising in image processing, have recently been generalized to Pairwise Markov Fields (PMF). Although the hidden process is no longer necessarily a Markov one in PMF models, they still allow one to recover it from observed data. We propose in this paper two original methods of parameter estimation in PMF, based on general ...
متن کاملPerson parameter estimation in the polytomous Rasch model
An important task in psychometric measurement is to identify the skills of persons, by accounting the difficulty degree of item responses in questionaries. The Item Response Theory (IRT) is the base for a valid measurement of the skills and the Rasch Model a well established probabilistic model, in the implementation of the theory. More recent extensions of the Rasch Model include the Partial C...
متن کاملPairwise Comparison Estimation of Censored Transformation Models
In this paper a pairwise comparison estimation procedure is proposed for the regression coefficients in a censored transformation model. The main advantage of the new estimator is that it can accommodate covariate dependent censoring without the requirement of smoothing parameters, trimming procedures, or stringent tail behavior restrictions. We also modify the pairwise estimator for other vari...
