摘要
本文介绍的 TestAnaAPP 是一个交互式、用户友好的 R 软件包,设计用于在社会科学领域进行心理测量分析。它提供了一套全面的心理测量分析方法,包括因子分析(FA)、经典测验理论(CTT)、单维和多维项目反应理论(IRT)、连续反应模型(CRM)和差异项目功能(DIF)分析。这些方法通常用于测试和问卷的数据挖掘。正如本文所展示的那样,TestAnaAPP 使来自不同领域、对应用心理测量方法感兴趣的研究人员和从业人员能够无缝地执行分析、访问全面的数据分析结果、生成可视化结果、获取详细的分析报告等。
TestAnaAPP: An interactive R-shiny application for various test analysis methods
This paper presents TestAnaAPP, an interactive, user-friendly R package designed for conducting psychometric analyses in social science. It offers a comprehensive suite of psychometric analyses, including factor analysis (FA), classical test theory (CTT), unidimensional and multidimensional item response theory (IRT), continuous response model (CRM), and differential item functioning (DIF) analysis. These methods are commonly employed in data mining of tests and questionnaires. As demonstrated in this paper, TestAnaAPP empowers researchers and practitioners from diverse fields with an interest in applying psychometric methods to seamlessly perform analyses, access comprehensive data analysis results, generate visualizations, obtain detailed analysis reports, and more.
期刊介绍:
SoftwareX aims to acknowledge the impact of software on today''s research practice, and on new scientific discoveries in almost all research domains. SoftwareX also aims to stress the importance of the software developers who are, in part, responsible for this impact. To this end, SoftwareX aims to support publication of research software in such a way that: The software is given a stamp of scientific relevance, and provided with a peer-reviewed recognition of scientific impact; The software developers are given the credits they deserve; The software is citable, allowing traditional metrics of scientific excellence to apply; The academic career paths of software developers are supported rather than hindered; The software is publicly available for inspection, validation, and re-use. Above all, SoftwareX aims to inform researchers about software applications, tools and libraries with a (proven) potential to impact the process of scientific discovery in various domains. The journal is multidisciplinary and accepts submissions from within and across subject domains such as those represented within the broad thematic areas below: Mathematical and Physical Sciences; Environmental Sciences; Medical and Biological Sciences; Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences. Originating from these broad thematic areas, the journal also welcomes submissions of software that works in cross cutting thematic areas, such as citizen science, cybersecurity, digital economy, energy, global resource stewardship, health and wellbeing, etcetera. SoftwareX specifically aims to accept submissions representing domain-independent software that may impact more than one research domain.
