ShowItems: Show Content of Empirically Elected Items.

In Scale: Likert Type Questionnaire Item Analysis

Description

This function relies to ChooseBest() function, in order to print out the content of the highest loading items.

Usage

ShowItems(it, n=5, write_file=FALSE, scale_name="MyItems")

Arguments

it	An ItemAnalysis object, created by the ItemAnalysis() function.
n	integer. Number of items to be retained and printed on screen.
write_file	logical. Should a file be written with the elected items?
scale_name	character. Name to be used in file, if one should be written.

Details

Items are written to file without their original labels. I chose this way, because use of this function is mainly aimed at passing on elected items to other formatting programs in order to administer. Refer to the output of the function inside R, as well as to the ChooseItems() function, for the original item labels.

The default filename is "MyItems.txt". Change the scale_name argument to costumize that.

Value

A character vector of the chosen items.
