| itemstats {mirt} | R Documentation |
Function to compute generic item summary statistics that do not require prior fitting of IRT models. Contains information about coefficient alpha (and alpha if an item is deleted), mean/SD and frequency of total scores, reduced item-total correlations, average/sd of the correlation between items, response frequencies, and conditional mean/sd information given the unweighted sum scores.
itemstats(

group = NULL,
use_ts = TRUE,
proportions = TRUE,
ts.tables = FALSE
)
data |
An object of class |
group |
optional grouping variable to condition on when computing summary information |
use_ts |
logical; include information that is conditional on a meaningful total score? |
proportions |
logical; include response proportion information for each item? |
ts.tables |
logical; include mean/sd summary information pertaining to the unweighted total score? |
Returns a list containing the summary statistics
