Arguments
o |
an |
j |
the numeric index of the examinee. |
position |
the item position, ranging from 1 to test length. |
augmented_current_theta |
current theta estimate, based on any extra items supplied to the simulation. |
augmented_item_pool |
the |
model_code |
machine-sanitized item model codes for passing onto C++ functions. |
augmented_item_index |
item indices of items administered to this examinee, also including any extra items supplied to the simulation. |
augmented_item_resp |
responses for items administered to this examinee, also including any extra items supplied to the simulation. |
include_items_for_estimation |
an examinee-wise list containing:
|
item_parameter_sample |
a list containing numerical samples of item parameters that reflect item parameter estimation uncertainty.
The output of |
config |
a |
simulation_constants |
a named list containing simulation constants. |
bayesian_constants |
a named list containing Bayesian constants. |
Value
estimateInterimTheta
returns an updated output_Shadow
object.
