builtin_itembank: Collection of items fitting the Rasch model

Description

A data frame with administrative information per item with difficulty estimates (tau) from the Rasch model. The item bank provides the basic information to calculate D-scores. The items in the item bank are a subset of all items as collected in builtin_itemtable.

Usage

builtin_itembank

Details

The difficulty estimates were estimated by a Rasch model. The key indicates the specific Rasch model used to estimate the difficulty. Strictly speaking, one can only compare D-score calculated from the same key.
