Ik was vandaag naar Den Bosch: De tentoonstelling over Bodo Rasch in het Design Museum. Bekend van zijn expressieve bouwwerken in Mekka (o.a.) Nog t/m 5 april. Wel waard om te zien! designmuseum.nl/tentoonstell...

New #preprint "Development and validation of the #Mindfulness #Meditation Practice Quality Scales (MMPQS) in a clinical population using #Rasch analysis" currently under review in @springernature.com journal Mindfulness. Watch this space! #research

I've updated the reliability section of my `easyRasch` vignette as well: pgmj.github.io/raschrvignet...

New preprint: ”Uncovering Measurement Issues in Collective Efficacy: A Rasch-Based Evaluation”: osf.io/preprints/os...
We find inadequate measurement properties for both subscales in this widely used survey questionnaire on collective efficacy.
#psychometrics #rasch
#statstab #333 {easyRasch} R package for Rasch analysis
Thoughts: Not my cup of tea. But useful package. Useful vignettes also.

Since today is UK Rasch and Psychometrics Day 2025 here in Cambridge, and I am presenting, here is a picture of the great man himself (left), with his former student Benjamin Wiright - who is rocking some serious jacket-and-trouser action that eclipses even Rasch's shirt.

I'm concerned about the lack of common metrics in the social sciences. Advances in physical sciences is dependent on common metrics. #rasch and #IRT alone result in "local objectivity"- scales and units connected to assessment items. Linking instruments does not seem to be catching on.
I'll self-nominate, if that's OK 🙂
I work on the educational measurement side - I have a couple of papers and a #Rasch package RaschPy in #Python for those who care to venture away from #RStats, and on which all comments and suggestions are welcome. References to the papers in the RaschPy readme.
After a pleasant discussion earlier today with @pgmj.bsky.social and @jrboehnke.bsky.social, I realised that I haven't plugged my Python Rasch package RaschPy on here yet. If you're interested in such things, you can find it here, with a full user manual (Apache licence):

I messed up earlier, assuming the output of tam.threshold() to be comparable to similar functions in other packages. But useful item thresholds were found in the tam() output object and I could rerun the simulation. Less bad for TAM, but still worse than eRm and mirt. #rasch #rstats #psychometrics
Rule of thumb cutoff values for various model fit metrics are ubiquitous in #psychometrics, despite evidence of the pitfalls with using them. I’ve added functions to my #rstats package to easily get correct simulation based cutoffs for #Rasch models. A brief example: pgmj.github.io/simcutoffs.h...
I will be giving a pre-conference workshop on #Rasch analysis using R and Quarto, focused on the package I developed, {RISEkbmRasch}, at the 1st Scandinavian Applied #Measurement Conference on the 12th of June.

Clear sky on a November afternoon.
Does that count as "sunny"? 😄
