GDINA (version 2.0.8)

designmatrix: Generate design matrix

Description

This function generates the design matrix for an item

Usage

designmatrix(Kj, model = "GDINA", Qj = NULL)

Arguments

Kj

Required except for the MS-DINA model; The number of attributes required for item j

model

the model associated with the design matrix; It can be "GDINA","DINA","DINO", "ACDM" or "MSDINA". The default is "GDINA". Note that models "LLM" and "RRUM" have the same design matrix as the ACDM.

Qj

the Q-matrix for item j; This is required for "MSDINA" model; The number of rows is equal to the number of strategies and the number of columns is equal to the number of attributes.

Value

a design matrix (Mj). See de la Torre (2011) for details.
