| CONCOV - Covariance Curve Estimation |
Whereas the dimensionality assessment proceduresDIMTEST, HCA/CCPROX,
and DETECTexamine dimensionality
by averaging over all examinee ability levels, CONCOV
nonparametrically estimates the conditional covariance curve for
each item pair as a function of the underlying composite latent
ability best measured by the total test score. The resulting
curves as well as their confidence intervals are graphically
displayed for easy evaluation by the user. CONCOV presumes
dichotomous item scoring. Such nonparametric estimated
conditional covariance curves and nonparametric estimates of the
item response functions can together be used to estimate a
non-unidimensional IRT model for test data when unidimensionality
fails.
