It covers the main topics of psychometrics such as validity, reliability, item analysis, item response theory models, and computerized adaptive testing. The computational aspects comprise the statistical theory and models, comparison of estimation methods and algorithms, as well as an implementation with practical data examples in R and also in an interactive ShinyItemAnalysis application.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStatistical models and estimation methods involved in psychometric research\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes reproducible R code and examples with real datasets\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInteractive implementation in ShinyItemAnalysis application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is targeted toward a wide range of researchers in the field of educational, psychological, and health-related measurements.
