Description:
Provides tools for testing differential item functioning (DIF) and differential test functioning (DTF) in two-group item response theory models. The package estimates robust scaling parameters via iteratively reweighted least squares with Tukey's bisquare loss, and supports Wald-type tests of item-level and test-level differences from robust scaling parameters. Inputs can be supplied directly from model parameter/covariance objects or extracted from fitted 'mirt' and 'lavaan' models. Methods are described in Halpin (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2207.04598>.
