View source: R/readin.R

Description

From ICL output, read in estimates of item parameters. Invoked automatically when the model is estimated via irtoys. If that is not the case, file must be a file produced with the write_item_param file command in ICL.

Usage

Arguments

file

File name

Value

A list with two elements, est and se, for the parameter estimates and their standard errors, correspondingly. Because ICL does not compute standard errors, se will be NULL. est is a matrix with one row per item, and three columns: [,1] item discrimination a, [,2] item difficulty b, and [,3] asymptote c. For the 1PL and 2PL models, all asymptotes are equal to 0; for the 1PL, the discriminations are all equal but not necessarily equal to 1.
