In addition, due to the widespread use of the instrument, exploring the instrument using a combination of classic test theory with Rasch analysis could provide a more detailed understanding of the instrument in a psychiatric population. The aim of the current study is to examine the validity and...
Both Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were employed to test the construct validity of the scale. This study also utilized a network perspective, incorporating Exploratory Graph Analysis (EGA) and centrality measures. As a result of the EFA and CFA, it was...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the CTDA test. Methods: A total of 278 students participated in this study and responded to the CTDA test. Cronbach's α coefficient, internal consistency, test-retest reliability, floor effects and ceiling effects were ...

For each demographic subgroup (age, sex, race, and ethnicity) within each symptom checklist subsample, we used a likelihood ratio test...
The latent structure is generally viewed as a representation of the construct to be measured (e.g., intelligence), while the observed scores typically represent concrete behavioral responses (e.g., answers to items in an IQ test). As a whole, thepsychometric modelthus coordinates the corresponde...
Another example is that the category intersection parameters in item 29 are not ordered (β1 = 1.22 and β2 = .86). However, PCM models the ordered response categories and category intersections are not necessarily ordered (De Ayala, 2009). This does not imply that the definitions ...
