Rasch Models for Solving Measurement Problems
This book introduces current perspectives on Rasch measurement theory with an emphasis on developing Rasch-based scales. Rasch Models for Solving Measurement Problems: Invariant Measurement in the Social Sciences is a broadly accessible text. Rasch measurement theory represents a paradigm shift in measurement theory away from classical test theory and creates a framework for scaling that can yield invariant measurement.
Points are illustrated and techniques are demonstrated through an extended example: The Food Insecurity Experience (FIE) Scale. Authors George Engelhard Jr and Jue Wang introduce Rasch measurement theory step by step, with chapters on scale construction, evaluation, maintenance, and use. The Rasch analyses in the book are run using the Facets computer program.
Facets syntax, and R code for the ERMA program created by the authors to obtain parameter
