Test Theory without True Scores?

Cliff, Norman

Psychometrika, v44 n4 p373-93 Dec 1979

This paper traces the course of the consequences of viewing test responses as simply providing dichotomous data concerning ordinal relations. It begins by proposing that the score matrix is best considered to be items-plus-persons by items-plus-persons, and recording the wrongs as well as the rights. (Author/CTM)
