Journal ArticleDOI
Using Statistical Procedures to Identify Differentially Functioning Test Items
TL;DR: The Mantel-Haenszel statistic, logistic regression, SIBTES'r, the Standardization procedure, and various IRT-based approaches are presented, and the relative strengths and weaknesses of the method are highlighted, and guidance is provided for interpretation of the resulting statistical indices.
Journal ArticleDOI
A demonstration of the impact of response bias on the results of patient satisfaction surveys.
TL;DR: Simulation results suggest response bias could lead to overestimation of patient satisfaction overall, with this effect greatest for physicians with the lowest satisfaction scores, threatening the validity of provider-level comparisons.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of Purification of Matching Criterion on the Identification of DIF Using the Mantel-Haenszel Procedure
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-step form of the Mantel-Haenszel procedure is proposed, in which items identified as displaying DIF on an initial implementation are removed from the matching criterion for a subsequent analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Sample Size on the Functioning of the Mantel-Haenszel Statistic:
TL;DR: In this paper, examinee item responses were simulated to contain differentially functioning items, and then were analyzed at five sample sizes to compare detection rates of the Mantel-Haenszel (MH) procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Nonuniform Differential Item Functioning Using a Variation of the Mantel-Haenszel Procedure.
TL;DR: In this article, examinee responses were generated to simulate both uniform and non-uniform DIF, and a standard Mantel-Haenszel (MH) procedure was used first, examinees were split into two samples by breaking the full sample at approximately the middle of the test score distribution.
