Description

S3 Method to plot objects of class monotonicity.class. Graphic display of the checks of monotonicity. One graph for each item plotting the estimated item step response functions.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'monotonicity.class':
plot(x, items = all, ask = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x

Object of class monotonicity.class produced by check.monotonicity.

items

vector containing the numbers of the items for which the results are depicted graphically. Default the results for all items are depicted.

ask

Boolean. If TRUE (default), then par("ask"=TRUE); i.e., a hard return between subsequent plots is required. If FALSE, then par("ask"=FALSE).
