gamma_to_difficulty

Convert guessing probability to a difficulty score.

internal

Provides tools to adjust estimates of learning for guessing-related
bias in educational and survey research. Implements standard guessing
correction methods and latent class models that leverage informative
pre-post test transitions to account for guessing behavior.
The package helps researchers obtain more accurate estimates of actual
learning when respondents may guess on closed-ended knowledge items.
