Abstract:This study aims to examine the effects of mixture item response theory (IRT) models on item parameter estimation and classification accuracy under different conditions. The manipulated variables of the simulation study are set as mixture IRT models (Rasch, 2PL, 3PL); sample size (600, 1000); the number of items (10, 30); the number of latent classes (2, 3); missing data type (complete, missing at random (MAR) and missing not at random (MNAR)), and the percentage of missing data (10%, 20%). Data were generated … Show more
