Table of ContentsReviewsBased on scores in a battery of questions in Psychometrics, IRT is a paradigm for designing, analyzing, and interpreting the individual's abilities. Volume two covers mainly probability distributions, models with intentional and nuisance parameters, information criteria, and model identification issues, among others. To read through and comprehend the contents of this volume two, one needs calculus and mathematical statistics background. There are 20 well written chapters covering a range of topics...written by experts from all continents. The references in the chapters are exhaustive and up-to-date. I enjoyed reading this book.
