item.resid: Item Level Residuals

In multicon: Multivariate Constructs

Description

Returns the residuals of y.set after predicting the values from the corresponding columsn in x.set.

Usage

item.resid(x.set, y.set, nomiss = 0.8)

Arguments

x.set	A data.frame or matrix, with the same dimensions as y.set, of which each column is a predictor of the corresponding column in y.set.
y.set	A data.frame or matrix, with the same dimensions as x.set, of which each column is to be predicted by the correpsonding column in x.set.
nomiss	A numeric between .00 and 1.00 specifying the proportion of x-y pairs required to be complete before NA is returned instead of the regression coefficients. The default of .80 means that if more than 20 percent of the x-y pairs are incomplete an NA will be returned.

Details

Each column in x.set is used to predict its corresponding column in y.set and the residuals are returned.

Value

A data.frame with the same dimensions as y.set, containing the residual values on each item after predicting the item scores from the values in x.set.
