Certain criticisms of the use of the Rasch model have been queried in a paper by Bryce. We argue that these criticisms not only remain valid, but are reinforced by recent research on latent trait models. In particular, Bryce fails to present a clear conceptual argument and adopts a very inefficient procedure for testing empirically the fit of the Rasch model. A paper by Bryce (1981) takes issue...

The act of constructing a measure requires a number of important assumptions. Principle among these assumptions is that the construct is unidimensional. In practice there are many instances when the assumption of unidimensionality does not hold, and where the application of a multidimensional measurement model is both technically appropriate and substantively advantageous. In this paper we illu...

The purpose of this paper is to use the Rasch model software in analyzing identified influencing factors internet banking towards improving adoption usage and find validity reliability instrument. An initial conceptual was developed based on previous Literature Review. About 17 have been from models frameworks they improved as factors. Those are website design (WD), ease (EOU), security, qualit...

It is suggested that students' course projects be evaluated formally using an unorthodox use of the dichotomous Rasch model and fuzzy assessments criteria. The approach may integrated into e-learning systems enables program implementation.
