ISRANGE= category range of an item group

By default, Winsteps deduces the range of categories of  an item group from the data. ISRANGE= or ICRANGE= states the range of category numbers explicitly. This is useful with SFUNCTION=

 

ISRANGE= file name

file containing details

ISRANGE = *

in-line list

ISRANGE = ?

opens a Browser window to find the file

 

ISRANGE=* (or filename)

(item number in item group, ISGROUP=) (lowest category number) (highest category number)

...

*

 

Example: For the Olympic Ice-Skating in Exam15.txt, the rating scale range is 0-60 though the observed range is 29-60. All items (raters) share the same rating scale.

 

ISRANGE=*

2 00 60   ; 2 is an example rater number in the group

*
