Reliability Estimation for Single Dichotomous Items Based on Mokken's IRT Model.
Meijer, Rob R.; And Others
Applied Psychological Measurement, v19 n4 p323-35 Dec 1995
Three methods based on the nonparametric item response theory (IRT) of R. J. Mokken for the estimation of the reliability of single dichotomous test items are discussed. Analytical and Monte Carlo studies show that one method, designated "MS," is superior because of smaller bias and smaller sampling variance. (SLD)
