Overview

About

Maintained by Wenchao MaCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

A set of psychometric tools for cognitive diagnosis modeling based on the generalized deterministic inputs, noisy and gate (G-DINA) model by de la Torre (2011) DOI:10.1007/s11336-011-9207-7 and its extensions, including the sequential G-DINA model by Ma and de la Torre (2016) DOI:10.1111/bmsp.12070 for polytomous responses, and the polytomous G-DINA model by Chen and de la Torre DOI:10.1177/0146621613479818 for polytomous attributes. Joint attribute distribution can be independent, saturated, higher-order, loglinear smoothed or structured. Q-matrix validation, item and model fit statistics, model comparison at test and item level and differential item functioning can also be conducted. A graphical user interface is also provided. For tutorials, please check Ma and de la Torre (2020) DOI:10.18637/jss.v093.i14, Ma and de la Torre (2019) DOI:10.1111/emip.12262, Ma (2019) DOI:10.1007/978-3-030-05584-4_29 and de la Torre and Akbay (2019).

Changes in 2.13.2

Fixed - plot.Qval no longer fails when rendering mesa plots with ggplot2.
Change. - itemfit function can be used for sequential models
Change. - dif function can handle attributes with hierarchical structures
Change. - dif and pairwiseDIF functions can handle more than two groups
Change. - CA function report consistency

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("GDINA", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("Wenchao-Ma/GDINA")

Development version from Wenchao-Ma/GDINA. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-gdina

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-GDINA

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-GDINA

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
