restScore: Plot an ERF using rest scores

In FMP: Filtered Monotonic Polynomial IRT Models

Description

Plot an empirical response function using rest scores.

Usage

 restScore(data, item, NCuts)

Arguments

data	N(subjects)-by-p(items) matrix of 0/1 item response data.
item	Generate a rest score plot for item item.
NCuts	Divide the rest scores into NCuts bins of equal width.

Value

A restscore plot with 95% confidence interval bars for the conditional probability estimates.

item	The item number.
bins	A vector of bin limits and bin sample sizes.
binProb	A vector of bin conditional probabilities.
