read.ip.icl: Read in parameter estimates
Description
From ICL output, read in estimates of item parameters.
Invoked automatically when the model is estimated via
irtoys
. If that is not the case, file
must
be a file produced with the write_item_param file
command in ICL.Value
- A matrix with one row per item, and three columns: [,1]
item discrimination $a$, [,2] item difficulty
$b$, and [,3] asymptote $c$. For the 1PL and 2PL
models, all asymptotes are equal to 0; for the 1PL, the
discriminations are all equal but not necessarily equal
to 1.
