standardizeRakingWeights

Raking weights get divided by the smallest weight. Thereby, all weights
become larger or equal to 1 without changing the ratio of the weights
to each other.

Generates continuous test norms in
psychometrics and biometrics, and analyzing model fit. The package offers
both distribution-free modeling using Taylor polynomials and parametric
modeling using the beta-binomial and the 'Sinh-Arcsinh' distribution.
Originally developed for achievement tests, it is applicable to a wide
range of mental, physical, or other test scores dependent on continuous or
discrete explanatory variables. The package provides several advantages:
It minimizes deviations from representativeness in subsamples, interpolates
between discrete levels of explanatory variables, and significantly reduces
the required sample size compared to conventional norming per age group.
cNORM enables graphical and analytical evaluation of model fit,
accommodates a wide range of scales including those with negative and
descending values, and as well supports conventional norming. It generates
norm tables including confidence intervals. Methods for addressing
representativeness issues are available through Iterative Proportional
Fitting. Based on Lenhard et al. (2016)
