Analysis Sequence Number/Name

An Analysis Sequence Number/Name will be generated for each analysis included in the request.
- For template type ‘Item Analysis – Classical’, the number of sequences generated is dependent on the number of criterion score & LIC combinations selected in Test Settings for each analysis template.
- For template type 'Item Analysis - Differential Item Functioning', the number of sequences generated is dependent on the number of criterion scores selected in Test Settings and the number of reference groups selected in the analysis template.
- For template type 'Item Response Theory' , the number of sequences generated is dependent on the number of sub-analyses selected to be performed. Calibration, TBLT and Equating each generate an independent sequence number in the request.
- For template type ‘Summary Statistics’, the number of sequences generated is dependent on the number of scores, categories, or category & score combinations selected under each type of summary statistics analyses configured in Test Settings.
The format for each Item Analysis - Classical analysis generated is:
- Sequence #: Analysis Type | Analysis Template Name | 'Criterion Score' - Score Name
The format for each Item Analysis - Differential Item Functioning analysis generated is:
- Sequence #: Analysis Type | Analysis Template Name | 'Criterion Score' - Score Name | 'Reference Group' - Group ID - Group Name
The format for each Item Response Theory analysis generated is one of the following (depending on analysis selected):
- ONE FOR CALIBRATION
- ONE FOR TBLT
- ONE FOR EQUATING
The format for each Summary Statistics analysis generated is one of the following (depending on analysis selected):
- Sequence #: Analysis Type | Analysis Template Name | 'Score(s)' - Score Name(s)
- Sequence #: Analysis Type | Analysis Template Name | 'Category' - Category Value
- Sequence #: Analysis Type | Analysis Template Name | 'Category' - Category Value | 'Score(s)' - Score Name(s)
Displayed as a dropdown

The dropdown expands to show a table displaying the following:
- Seq #, Analysis Type, Analysis Template, Analysis Attributes
Analysis sequences are sorted by:
- Analysis Type
  - Item Analysis - Classical
  - Item Analysis - Differential Item Functioning
  - Item Response Theory - Calibration
  - Item Response Theory - TBLT
  - Item Response Theory - Equating
  - Summary Statistics - Bivariate Distributions
  - Summary Statistics - Category-Counts
  - Summary Statistics - Category-Scores Frequency Distribution & Summary Statistics
  - Summary Statistics - Frequency Distributions
  - Summary Statistics - Test Score Matrices
- Analysis Template
- Analysis Attributes

Hovering over the description for an Analysis Sequence Number will display the full details

Selecting an Analysis Sequence Number from the dropdown will display all of the configured options for each analysis included in the request. Viewing and Editing options depend on the template Analysis Type selected. For specific option details see:
