ltm (version 1.1-0)

summary: Summary method for fitted IRT models

Description

Summarizes the fit of either grm, ltm, rasch or tpm objects.

Usage

# S3 method for gpcm
summary(object, robust.se = FALSE, …)

# S3 method for grm summary(object, …)

# S3 method for ltm summary(object, robust.se = FALSE, …)

# S3 method for rasch summary(object, robust.se = FALSE, …)

# S3 method for tpm summary(object, …)

Arguments

object

an object inheriting from either class gpcm, either class grm, class ltm, class rasch or class tpm.

robust.se

logical; if TRUE robust estimation of standard errors is used, based on the sandwich estimator.

additional argument; currently none is used.

Value

An object of either class summ.gpcm, class summ.grm, class summ.ltm or class summ.rasch with components,

coefficients

the estimated coefficients' table.

Var.betas

the approximate covariance matrix for the estimated parameters; returned only in summ.ltm and summ.rasch.

logLik

the log-likelihood of object.

AIC

the AIC for object.

BIC

the BIC for object.

max.sc

the maximum absolute value of the score vector at convergence.

conv

the convergence identifier returned by optim().

counts

the counts argument returned by optim().

call

the matched call of object.

ltn.struct

a character vector describing the latent structure used in object; returned only in summ.ltm.

control

the values used in the control argument in the fit of object.

nitems

the number of items in the data set; returned only in summ.ltm and summ.rasch.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
# use Hessian = TRUE if you want standard errors
fit <- grm(Science[c(1,3,4,7)], Hessian = TRUE)
summary(fit)

## One factor model using the WIRS data;
## results are reported under the IRT
## parameterization
fit <- ltm(WIRS ~ z1)
summary(fit)

# }
