Silva, R. M.; Guan, Y.; Swartz, T. B. – Journal on Efficiency and Responsibility in Education and Science, 2017
This paper attempts to bridge the gap between classical test theory and item response theory. It is demonstrated that the familiar and popular statistics used in classical test theory can be translated into a Bayesian framework where all of the advantages of the Bayesian paradigm can be realized. In particular, prior opinion can be introduced and…
