Constructing the Exact Significance Level for a Person-Fit Statistic.

Liou, Michelle; Chang, Chih-Hsin

Psychometrika, v57 n2 p169-81 Jun 1992

An extension is proposed for the network algorithm introduced by C.R. Mehta and N.R. Patel to construct exact tail probabilities for testing the general hypothesis that item responses are distributed according to the Rasch model. A simulation study indicates the efficiency of the algorithm. (SLD)
