Computerized Adaptive Testing Using a Class of High-Order Item Response Theory Models
Hung-Yu Huang; Po-Hsi Chen; Wen-Chung Wang
Applied Psychological Measurement Vol. 36, No. 8 (November 2012) pp. 689–706
In the human sciences, a common assumption is that latent traits have a hierarchical structure. Higher order item response theory models have been developed to account for this hierarchy. In this study, computerized adaptive testing (CAT) algorithms ...

Item Response Theory Models for Wording Effects in Mixed-Format Scales
Wen-Chung Wang; Hui-Fang Chen; Kuan-Yu Jin
Educational and Psychological Measurement Vol. 75, No. 1 (February 2015) pp. 157–178
Many scales contain both positively and negatively worded items. Reverse recoding of negatively worded items might not be enough for them to function as positively worded items do. In this study, we commented on the drawbacks of existing approaches...

Higher-Order Item Response Models for Hierarchical Latent Traits
Hung-Yu Huang; Wen-Chung Wang; Po-Hsi Chen; Chi-Ming Su
Applied Psychological Measurement Vol. 37, No. 8 (November 2013) pp. 619–637
Many latent traits in the human sciences have a hierarchical structure. This study aimed to develop a new class of higher order item response theory models for hierarchical latent traits that are flexible in accommodating both dichotomous and...
