audit_process_local_dependenceR Documentation

Audit inter-option/process local dependence

Description

Computes pairwise residual correlations (a Q3-style diagnostic) across item or option columns and, when supplied, analogous process-residual correlations. This is a diagnostic for local dependence, not a formal test with universal cutoffs.

Usage

audit_process_local_dependence(
  response_residuals,
  process_residuals = NULL,
  threshold = 0.2
)

Arguments

response_residuals

Person-by-item/option residual matrix.

process_residuals

Optional aligned process-residual matrix.

threshold

Absolute correlation threshold used only for flagging.

Value

An object of class "eye_process_local_dependence_audit", stored as a named list, with components "pairs", "threshold", "max_absolute_response", "note". It contains inter-option/process local dependence and associated metadata or diagnostics needed to interpret the result.
