TL;DR: A modified H ADS-A and HADS-D are unidimensional, free of DIF and have good fit to the Rasch model in this population of patients with MND, suggesting they are suitable for use in MND clinics or research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rasch analysis of the Fatigue Severity Scale in multiple sclerosis
TL;DR: Summating the nine items of the FSS-9 is invalid and five items (FSS-5), which seem to be measuring the social impact of fatigue, provide a strictly unidimensional Rasch scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a patient reported outcome scale for fatigue in multiple sclerosis: The Neurological Fatigue Index (NFI-MS)
TL;DR: A simple 10-item Summary scale, together with scales measuring the physical and cognitive components of fatigue, were validated for MS fatigue.

TL;DR: This paper examines how well one rigorously developed – but potentially outdated – difficulty scale for American-English spelling fits the data collected from seventeen thousand students using the authors' SpellBEE peer-tutoring system, and attempts to construct alternate metrics that use collected data to achieve a better fit.

Journal ArticleDOI
Consequences of Using the Rasch Model for Educational Assessment
TL;DR: In this paper, a very controversial topic was discussed in the Schools Council/University of London Institute of Education Seminar on 24 October 1978, where the authors dealt with the effects of racism in education.
