In this introduction to the models, the focus is on the simple logistic model, which is one of the most elementary and commonly used.P/PPThe author explains the general principles behind the models, and demonstrates their procedures for measurement. Comparisons are made with other more widely-used measurement models. Throughout the text, an example from a personality inventory is used to provide continuity as the statistical arguments are presented and procedures explained./P

Statistical Methodology for Nomnitive-Ordinal Analysis of Scoring November 3, 2007
1 out of 3 found this review helpful

Statistical Methodology for Nominative-Ordinal Analysis scoring surveys. Part of a set of the series "Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences." The title of the series gives a false impression that this is a sociological text or method but it is widely used in health care and in opinion surveys. This is a "must have" for the statistician.
