{title:Description}
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 8 14 2}{cmd:pcmtest} allows testing the fit between observed data and a
|
||
|
partial credit model or a rating scale model.{p_end}
|
||
|
{p 14 14 2}The global test of fit (test R1m) can only be computed if the data
|
||
|
contains at least two items. Item specific test of fit (Si tests) can only be
|
||
|
computed if the data contains at least three items. {p_end}
|
||
|
{p 14 14 2}{cmd:pcmtest} is only performed if item difficulties have been
|
||
|
estimated using {cmd:pcmodel}. {cmd:pcmtest} can be performed whether covariates
|
||
|
have been included in {cmd:pcmodel} or not.

|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:group} specifies groups of scores, by defining the upper limit of
|
||
|
each group
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:new} allows changing the computation methodology of the pattern
|
||
|
response probabilities between several tests of fit, rather than using the pattern
|
||
|
response probabilities stored in Stata memory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:nfit} specifies the size of a virtual sample with items response
|
||
|
distribution strictly identical to that observed ({cmd:nfit} can deal with
|
||
|
over-power problems when fit tests are performed on large samples).
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:power} specifies the desired power for a R1m test, and estimates the
|
||
|
corresponding size of a virtual sample with items response distribution strictly
|
||
|
identical to that observed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:alpha} specifies the type I error used to perform the test of fit
|
||
|
(default: 0.05).
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:approximation} Computation of the pattern response probabilities using
|
||
|
simulation instead of Gauss Hermitte quadratures. Computation should be quicker for
|
||
|
high number of items or responses categories.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:sitest} performs item specific test of fit (Si tests).
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:graphics} displays several graphs (Distribution of the latent trait
|
||
|
depending on the individual scores, graphic of MAP, graphic of
|
||
|
the groups contributions to the R1m statistic, and graphic of the observed and expected
|
||
|
score distribution).
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:filegraph} indicates the filename and path for saving the graphs
|
||
|
(four graphs are store: {it:filegraph}_LT_Sc, {it:filegraph}_MAP, {it:filegraph}_Contrib
|
||
|
and {it:filegraph}_Score_Distrib.)
