FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Rasch Measurement Theory Analysis in R provides researchers and practitioners with a step-by-step guide for conducting Rasch measurement theory analyses using R. It includes theoretical introductions to major Rasch measurement principles and techniques, demonstrations of analyses using several R packages that contain Rasch measurement functions, and sample interpretations of results. Features:Accessible to users with relatively little experience with R programmingReproducible data analysis examples that can be modified to accommodate users own dataAccompanying e-book website with links to additional resources and R code updates as neededFeatures dichotomous and polytomous (rating scale) Rasch models that can be applied to data from a wide range of disciplines This book is designed for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners across the social, health, and behavioral sciences who have a basic familiarity with Rasch measurement theory and with R. Readers will learn how to use existing R packages to conduct a variety of analyses related to Rasch measurement theory, including evaluating data for adherence to measurement requirements, applying the dichotomous, Rating Scale, Partial Credit, and Many-Facet Rasch models, examining data for evidence of differential item functioning, and considering potential interpretations of results from such analyses. Author Biography Stefanie A. Wind is an Associate Professor of Educational Measurement at the University of Alabama. Her primary research interests include the exploration of methodological issues in the field of educational measurement, with emphases on methods related to rater-mediated assessments, rating scales, Rasch models, item response theory models, and nonparametric item response theory, as well as applications of these methods to substantive areas related to education. Cheng Hua is a Ph.D. candidate in Educational Measurement program at the University of Alabama. His primary research interests include Rasch Measurement theory, advanced regression models, Bayesian statistics, and visual learning tools (such as Mind Maps and Concept Maps). He enjoys applying his psychometric and statistical skills to address real-world research questions through interdisciplinary collaborations. Table of Contents 1 Introduction 2 Dichotomous Rasch Model 3 Evaluating the Quality of Measures 4 Rating Scale Model 5 Partial Credit Model 6 Many Facet Rasch Model 7 Basics of Differential Item Functioning Review Over 60 years ago, Georg Rasch introduced a fundamentally new way of viewing measurement theory into the social sciences. His approach to invariant measurement provides the opportunity to achieve sample-free calibration of items and item-free measurement of persons. His research remains the gold standard for developing psychometrically sound assessments. Stefanie A. Wind and Cheng Hua introduce Raschs fundamental ideas to students, researchers, and practitioners using readily available software in R that facilitates the quest for invariant measurement. -George Engelhard, University of Georgia Details ISBN0367776391 Author Stefanie Wind Publisher Taylor & Francis Ltd Year 2022 ISBN-10 0367776391 ISBN-13 9780367776398 Publication Date 2022-06-03 UK Release Date 2022-06-03 Format Paperback Place of Publication London Country of Publication United Kingdom AU Release Date 2022-06-03 NZ Release Date 2022-06-03 Pages 316 Illustrations 15 Tables, black and white; 87 Line drawings, black and white; 87 Illustrations, black and white Series Chapman & Hall/CRC The R Series Alternative 9781032005607 DEWEY 150.15195 Audience Tertiary & Higher Education Imprint Chapman & Hall/CRC We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
