Effects on Scale Linking of Different Definitions of Criterion Functions for the Irt Characteristic Curve Methods

Under item response theory, the characteristic curve methods (Haebara and Stocking-Lord methods) are used to link two ability scales from separate calibrations. The linking methods use their respective criterion functions that can be defined differently according to the symmetry- and distribution-re...
