On a Metric, Unidimensional Unfolding Model for Attitudinal and Developmental Data

Davison, Mark L.

Psychometrika, 42, 4, 523-48, Dec 77

A model is presented which allows for the prediction of relationships among stimuli when stimulus responses are linearly related to squared distances between stimulus scale values and person scores along a latent continuum. Applications to developmental and attitudinal data are discussed. (Author/JKS)
