Simulate Data under a Rasch model
rrm
simulates IRT data under a Rasch model.
rrm(theta, beta, return_setting = TRUE)
theta |
numeric vector of person parameters. Can also be a list, then a
list of length |
beta |
numeric vector of item difficulty parameters. |
return_setting |
logical. Should a list containing slots of "beta", and "theta", as well as the simulated data matrix "data" be returned (default) or only the simulated data matrix. |
rrm
returns either a list of the following components:
beta |
numeric vector of item difficulty parameters used, |
theta |
numeric vector of person parameters used, |
data |
numeric matrix containing the simulated data, |
or (if return_setting = FALSE
) only the numeric matrix containing the
simulated data.
