Identification of Nonuniform Differential Item Functioning: A Comparison of Mantel-Haenszel and Item Response Theory Analysis Procedures.
Maranon, Pedro Prieto; And Others
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v57 n4 p559-68 Aug 1997
A modification of the Mantel Haenszel (MH) procedure in which the sample is broken in half and subsamples are studied separately was compared with a residual procedure based on item response theory as a way to detect differential item functioning (DIF). Results suggest that the residual analysis achieves higher DIF detection. (SLD)
