We focus on the identification of differential item functioning (DIF) when more than two groups of examinees are considered. We propose to consider items as elements of a multivariate space, where DIF items are outlying elements. Following this approach, the situation of multiple groups is a quite natural case. A robust statistics technique is proposed to identify DIF items as outliers in the multivariate space. For low dimensionalities, up to 2-3 groups, a simple graphical tool is derived. We illustrate our approach with a reanalysis of data from Kim, Cohen, and Park (1995) on using calculators for a mathematics test. (Contains 2 tables and 4 figures.)
