In eatModel: Educational Assessment Tools for IRT Modeling using Conquest or TAM

Description

Start the estimation of an IRT model defined by defineModel. runModel should be called with the argument returned by defineModel.

Usage

runModel(defineModelObj, show.output.on.console = FALSE, 
    show.dos.console = TRUE, wait = TRUE) 

Arguments

defineModelObj	The object returned by defineModel.
show.output.on.console	Applies only if defineModel previously was called with software = "conquest". Logical: Should the output of the conquest console be printed on the R console during estimation?
show.dos.console	Applies only if defineModel previously was called with software = "conquest". Logical: Should the output of the conquest console be printed on screen?
wait	Applies only if defineModel previously was called with software = "conquest". A logical (not NA) indicating whether the R interpreter should wait for the command to finish, or run it asynchronously.

Value

If defineModel previously was called with software = "tam", the returned value is identically to the corresponding TAM output. If defineModel previously was called with software = "conquest", the returned value contains only internally used information useful for getResults.
