(Internal) Estimate final theta

Description

estimateFinalTheta is an internal function for estimating final theta.

Usage

estimateFinalTheta(
  o,
  j,
  position,
  augmented_item_pool,
  model_code,
  augmented_item_index,
  augmented_item_resp,
  include_items_for_estimation,
  item_parameter_sample,
  config,
  simulation_constants,
  bayesian_constants
)

Arguments

o	an output_Shadow object.
j	the numeric index of the examinee.
position	the item position, ranging from 1 to test length.
augmented_item_pool	the item_pool object, also including any extra items supplied to the simulation.
model_code	machine-sanitized item model codes for passing onto C++ functions.
augmented_item_index	item indices of items administered to this examinee, also including any extra items supplied to the simulation.
augmented_item_resp	responses for items administered to this examinee, also including any extra items supplied to the simulation.
include_items_for_estimation	an examinee-wise list containing: administered_item_pool items to include in theta estimation as item_pool object. administered_item_resp item responses to include in theta estimation.
item_parameter_sample	a list containing numerical samples of item parameters that reflect item parameter estimation uncertainty. The output of iparPosteriorSample goes here.
config	a config_Shadow object. Use createShadowTestConfig for this.
simulation_constants	a named list containing simulation constants.
bayesian_constants	a named list containing Bayesian constants.

Value

estimateFinalTheta returns an updated output_Shadow object.
