A New Multiprocess IRT Model with Ideal Points for Likert-Type Items
Jin, Kuan-Yu; Wu, Yi-Jhen; Chen, Hui-Fang
Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, v47 n3 p297-321 Jun 2022
For surveys of complex issues that entail multiple steps, multiple reference points, and nongradient attributes (e.g., social inequality), this study proposes a new multiprocess model that integrates ideal-point and dominance approaches into a treelike structure (IDtree). In the IDtree, an ideal-point approach describes an individual's attitude and then a dominance approach describes their tendency for using extreme response categories. Evaluation of IDtree performance via two empirical data sets showed that the IDtree fit these data better than other models. Furthermore, simulation studies showed a satisfactory parameter recovery of the IDtree. Thus, the IDtree model sheds light on the response processes of a multistage structure.
