Calculate Adaptivity Measures

Description

calculateAdaptivityMeasures is a function for calculating commonly used adaptivity measures.

Usage

calculateAdaptivityMeasures(x)

Arguments

x	an output_Shadow_all object.

Value

calculateAdaptivityMeasures returns a named list:

• corr the correlation between final theta estimates and average test locations.

• ratio the ratio of (1) standard deviation of average test locations, versus (2) standard deviation of final theta estimates.

• PRV the proportion of variance reduced, from (1) the variance of item locations of all items in the pool, by (2) the average of test location variances.

• info (1) average information of a test at final theta estimate, relative to (2) best average obtainable from item pool using same test length, adjusting for (3) average information from item pool using random selection.
