data.dcm: Dataset from Book 'Diagnostic Measurement' of Rupp, Templin and Henson (2010)

Description

Dataset from Chapter 9 of the book 'Diagnostic Measurement' (Rupp, Templin & Henson, 2010).

Usage

data(data.dcm)

Arguments

Format

The format of the data is a list containing the dichotomous item response data data (10000 persons at 7 items) and the Q-matrix q.matrix (7 items and 3 skills):

List of 2 $ data :'data.frame': ..$ id: int [1:10000] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... ..$ D1: num [1:10000] 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 ... ..$ D2: num [1:10000] 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 ... ..$ D3: num [1:10000] 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 ... ..$ D4: num [1:10000] 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 ... ..$ D5: num [1:10000] 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 ... ..$ D6: num [1:10000] 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 ... ..$ D7: num [1:10000] 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 ... $ q.matrix: num [1:7, 1:3] 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 ... ..- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2 .. ..$ : chr [1:7] "D1" "D2" "D3" "D4" ... .. ..$ : chr [1:3] "skill1" "skill2" "skill3"
