Hi everybody:
I am doing a differential item functioning(DIF) study. I know that if
two forms of a test gevin to two samples of people we need to equate
scores of one form to be on the same scale as the other form.
My question:
What if we have the same group of items gevin to two groups of people, do
we still need to equate before analizing for DIF ???
thanks abdalla
