{title:Description}
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:traces} builds graphical representations of various kinds of
|
||
|
traces (non parametric Item Response Functions) for dichotomous or polytomous items.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{title:Options}
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:score} displays the graphical representations of the traces of the
|
||
|
items as a function of the total score. This is the defaut option if none {cmd:score},
|
||
|
none {cmd:restscore}, none {cmd:logistic} are indicated.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:restscore} displays the graphical representations of the
|
||
|
traces of the items as a function of the rest-score (total score unless the item).
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:ci} displays the confidence interval at 95% of the traces.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:test} tests the nullity of the slope of dichotomous items traces
|
||
|
with a linear model.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:cumulative} displays cumulative traces for polytomous
|
||
|
items instead of classical traces.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:logistic} displays the graphical representation of the logitic
|
||
|
traces of the items as a function of the score: each trace is the result of a
|
||
|
logistic model with the response to the item as variable to explicate and the
|
||
|
score (and a constant) as explicative variable. This kind of trace is possible
|
||
|
only for dichotomous items. All the logistic traces are represented in the same
|
||
|
graph.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:repfile}({it:directory}) is the directory where the files are saved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:scorefiles}({it:string}) defines the generic name of the files containing the graphical representations of the traces as a function of the score.
|
||
|
The name will be followed by the name of each item and by the .gph extension. If this option is not
|
||
|
indicated, the corresponding graphs will be not saved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:restscorefiles}({it:string}) defines the generic name of the files containing the graphical representations of the traces as a function of the rest-scores.
|
||
|
The name will be followed by the name of each item and by the .gph extension. If this option is not
|
||
|
indicated, the corresponding graphs will be not saved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:logisticfile}({it:string}) defines the name of the file containing the graphical representations of the logistic traces. This name will be followed by the .gph extension.
|
||
|
If this option is not indicated, the corresponding graph will be not saved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:nodraw} does not display the graphs by items.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:nodrawcomb} does not display the combined graphs by items.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:replace} replaces graphical files when they already exist.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:onlyone} displays only the trace of a given item.
|
||
|
|
||
|
{p 4 8 2}{cmd:thresholds} groups the individuals as a function of the (rest-)score. The string contains the maximal values of the (rest-)score in each group.
