simulate_mupp_params: Simulate MUPP Parameters

In swnydick/mupp: Multi-Unidimensional Pairwise Preference (MUPP) IRT Model

Simulate MUPP Parameters

Description

Generate parameters/thetas that conform to the MUPP model.

Usage

simulate_mupp_params(
  n_persons = 1,
  n_items = 1,
  n_dims = 2,
  max_item_dims = NULL,
  unidim_items = FALSE
)

Arguments

n_persons	integer indicating the number of persons
n_items	integer indicating the number of items
n_dims	integer > 2 indicating the total number of dimensions
max_item_dims	integer indicating the maximum dimensions on any item
unidim_items	boolian indicating whether an item can load on only a single dimension or must load on multiple dimensions

Details

For the purposes of parameter generation, each item will be assumed to have between 2 and n_dims dimensions, where the number of dimensions for an item is randomly generated from a discrete uniform distribution.

Value

a list with items/persons that conform to the MUPP model, as expected in package functions
