Course in Item Response Theory and Modeling with Stata: Enhancing Data Analysis and Interpretation
Item response theory (IRT) is a powerful statistical framework that provides a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between observed responses to test items and the underlying latent traits or abilities of individuals. It offers a sophisticated approach to data analysis and interpretation, allowing researchers and practitioners to extract meaningful insights from various assessment and measurement scenarios. This comprehensive course in IRT and modeling with Stata equips participants with the knowledge, skills, and expertise to leverage this advanced technique in their research endeavors.
Course Overview
This in-depth course provides a comprehensive to IRT and its applications. Participants will gain a thorough understanding of the fundamental concepts, models, and estimation procedures associated with IRT. The course covers a wide range of topics, including:
