data.sim.rasch: Simulated Rasch data

Description

Simulated Rasch data under unidimensional trait distribution

Usage

data(data.sim.rasch)
 data(data.sim.rasch.pweights)
 data(data.sim.rasch.missing)

Format

The format is:

num [1:2000, 1:40] 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...
- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2
..$ : NULL
..$ : chr [1:40] "I1" "I2" "I3" "I4" ...

Details

N <- 2000
# simulate predictors
Y <- cbind( stats::rnorm( N, sd=1.5), stats::rnorm(N, sd=.3 ) )
theta <- stats::rnorm( N ) + .4 * Y[,1] + .2 * Y[,2] # latent regression model
# simulate item responses with missing data
I <- 40
resp[ theta < 0, c(1,seq(I/2+1, I)) ] <- NA
# define person weights
pweights <- c( rep(3,N/2), rep( 1, N/2 ) )

Examples

if (FALSE) {
data(data.sim.rasch)
N <- 2000
Y <- cbind( stats::rnorm( N, sd=1.5), stats::rnorm(N, sd=.3 ) )

# Loading Matrix
# B <- array( 0, dim=c( I, 2, 1 )  )
# B[1:(nrow(B)), 2, 1] <- 1
B <- TAM::designMatrices(resp=data.sim.rasch)[["B"]]

# estimate Rasch model
mod1_1 <- TAM::tam.mml(resp=data.sim.rasch, Y=Y)

# standard errors
res1 <- TAM::tam.se(mod1_1)

# Compute fit statistics
tam.fit(mod1_1)

# plausible value imputation
# PV imputation has to be adpated for multidimensional case!

# missing value handling

# handling of sample (person) weights
