S3 Method to plot objects of class iio.class.
Graphic display of the checks of iio.
One graph for each item plotting the estimated item response functions.
# S3 method for iio.class
plot(x, item.pairs = all.pairs, ci = TRUE, alpha = .05,
color = c("black", "blue"), transparancy = 20, ask = TRUE, ...)Object of class iio.class produced by check.iio.
vector containing the numbers of the item pairs for which the results are depicted graphically.
For example, item.pairs = 1 prints the results for items 1 and 2,
item.pairs = 2 prints the results for items 1 and 3,
item.pairs = J prints the results for items 1 and $J$, and
item.pairs = J+1 prints the results for items 2 and 3.
Default the results for all item pairs are depicted.
Boolean. If TRUE (default), then confidence envelops are plotted around IRFs.
Type of plotted (1 - alpha) confidence intervals. By default 95-percent confidence intervals are depicted
Color of the plotted curves and confidence envelops. Defaults are black for the first item and blue for the second item.
Transparancy of the confidence intervals. Higher values result in more opaque colors for the confidence intervals.
Boolean. If TRUE (default), then par("ask"=TRUE); i.e., a hard return between subsequent plots is required.
If FALSE, then par("ask"=FALSE).
Optional graphical parameters will be ignored
Returns a graph.
The plot function corresponds to method MIIO; each graph plots the estimated item response functions (item rest-score functions) for two items.
For details of the method, see Ligtvoet et al. (2010, 2011); Sijtsma et al. (2012).
For details of the confidence envelopes, see Van der Ark (2012b).
For the implementation in R, see Van der Ark (2012a).
For ask==FALSE, the default graphic device in R may only display the last graph.
