Appl Psychol Meas. 2020 Oct;44(7-8):561-562. doi: 10.1177/0146621620929431. Epub 2020 Jun 13.

Abstract

There are many item response theory software packages designed for users. Here, the authors introduce an environment tailored to method development and simulation. Implementations of a selection of classic algorithms are available as well as some recently developed methods. Source code is developed in public repositories on GitHub; your collaboration is welcome.

Keywords: computer program; item response theory; simulation.
