Contingency Table Models for Assessing Item Bias.
Mellenbergh, Gideon J.
Journal of Educational Statistics, v7 n2 p105-18 Sum 1982
Strategies for assessing item bias are discussed. Correct response probabilities in latent trait models are compared conditional on latent ability. Probabilities are compared conditional on the observed test score in Scheuneman's method. A method to assess item bias and distinguish between uniform and nonuniform bias is described. (Author/DWH)
