ITBiserial

The Item-Total Biserial Correlation computes the biserial correlation
between each item and the total score. This function is applicable only
to binary response data.
This correlation provides a measure of item discrimination, indicating how well
each item distinguishes between high and low performing examinees.

Implements comprehensive test data engineering methods as described in
Shojima (2022, ISBN:978-9811699856). Provides statistical techniques for
engineering and processing test data: Classical Test Theory (CTT) with
reliability coefficients for continuous ability assessment; Item Response
Theory (IRT) including Rasch, 2PL, and 3PL models with item/test information
functions; Latent Class Analysis (LCA) for nominal clustering; Latent Rank
Analysis (LRA) for ordinal clustering with automatic determination of cluster
numbers; Biclustering methods including infinite relational models for
simultaneous clustering of examinees and items without predefined cluster
numbers; and Bayesian Network Models (BNM) for visualizing inter-item
dependencies. Features local dependence analysis through LRA and biclustering,
parameter estimation, dimensionality assessment, and network structure
visualization for educational, psychological, and social science research.
