--- title: "Advanced Rasch, mixture-IRT, and imputation sensitivity" output: rmarkdown::html_vignette vignette: > %\VignetteIndexEntry{Advanced Rasch, mixture-IRT, and imputation sensitivity} %\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown} %\VignetteEncoding{UTF-8} --- ```{r setup, include=FALSE} knitr::opts_chunk$set(collapse = TRUE, comment = "#>", eval = FALSE) library(eyeprocess) ``` This article collects optional diagnostic/sensitivity adapters that complement, rather than replace, the stable process-IRT core. ## True response-mixture IRT ```{r} mix <- fit_mixture_irt_process_classes( binary_response_matrix, n_classes = 2, itemtype = "2PL" ) plot(mix) ``` The mixture components are latent response-distribution classes. They must not be named as cognitive strategies without external response-process evidence. If defensible class assignments have been extracted, compare them with independent process summaries: ```{r} alignment <- map_latent_classes_to_process_profiles( class_membership, person_process_data, person = "person_id", class_col = "class", process_features = c("dwell_ms", "pupil_peak", "aoi_entropy", "revisits") ) plot(alignment) ``` ## Nonparametric Rasch diagnostics ```{r} np <- audit_nonparametric_rasch( binary_response_matrix, methods = c("T1", "T10"), n = 100 ) np$status plot(np, method = "T1") ``` ## Stepwise item-reduction sensitivity ```{r} red <- audit_item_reduction_sensitivity( erm_rasch, criterion = list("itemfit"), alpha = 0.05, maxstep = 5 ) red$eliminated_items plot(red) ``` Automated elimination is never sufficient evidence for deleting an item; content validity, theoretical coverage, DIF, local dependence, and process evidence remain required. ## Biometric-feature imputation sensitivity ```{r} imp <- biometric_imputation_sensitivity( trial_process_data, variables = c("rt_ms", "dwell_ms", "pupil_peak", "pupil_auc", "valid_gaze_prop"), methods = c("mice", "missForest") ) imp$missingness imp$status plot(imp) ``` Completed/imputed data are sensitivity datasets by default and do not silently replace the primary missingness strategy. ## Process-informed Rasch trees ```{r} tree <- fit_process_rasch_tree( binary_response_matrix, covariates = person_process_covariates ) plot(tree) ``` Tree splits diagnose conditional item-parameter heterogeneity. They are not automatically psychological strategy classes.
