This OSF page contains the supplementary material of the book
*Measurement Models for Psychological Attributes* by Klaas Sijtsma and Andries van der Ark. It includes the datasets and the R code used in the analyses. In addition, there is a flyere offering 20% discount on the book. Upon request, Chapter 3 (Nonparametric IRT and Mokken scale analysis) is available as a sample chapter from the second author.
**Data sets**
- **Transitive Reasoning Scale** (Bouwmeester & Sijtsma, 2004) referred to in chapters 1 and 4,
- **The Type D Scale-14** (DS14; Denollet, 2005) referred to in chapters 2 and 3,
- **Balance Scale** (Van Maanen, Been & Sijtsma, 1989) referred to in chapter 5, and
- **Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-III** (MCMI-3, Rossi, Sloore, & Derksen, 2008; Rossi, Elklit, & Simonsen, 2010) referred to in chapter 5,
are available here from OSF and from the R package `mokken` using the following code:
library(mokken)
data(transreas2) # Transitive Reasoning (as of version 3.0.4)
data(DS14) # DS-14
data(balance) # Balance Scale (as of version 3.0.4)
data(mcmci) # MCMI-III
**Code for the statistical analysis**
- **Chapter 2**: All analyses were conducted in `R`. The syntax file `dataAnalysisChapter2.R` is available here on OSF.
- **Chapter 3**: All analyses were conducted in `R`. The syntax file `dataAnalysisChapter3.R` is available here on OSF.
- **Chapter 4**: All analyses were conducted with `MIRT` (Glas, 2010). This package has now been replaced by `ShinyLexter`, which can be downloaded from [https://shinylexter.com/][1]. In due time the analyses of Chapter 4 will we made available for `ShinyLexter`. For now the data are available here on OSF (`transreas2.Rdata`)
- **Chapter 5 (Latent Class Analysis)**: The latent class analyses were conducted in `LEM`, (Vermunt 1997) which is available free of charge from [https://jeroenvermunt.nl/#Software][2]. `LEM` was in fact run from `R`. The syntax file `dataAnalysisChapter5Lca.R` is available here on OSF.
- **Chapter 5 (Cognitive Diagnosis Models)**: The Cognitive diagnosis models were estimated in `R`. The syntax file `dataAnalysisChapter5Cdm`is available here on OSF.
