Summary Statistics and Correlation Table
The summary statistics for the common items appear in a table. The a-parameter and b-parameter summary statistics will be displayed separately for all common dichotomous items and all common polytomous items (when applicable). For polytomous items, additional (b-d) parameter statistics are summarized.
The summary statistics that are displayed are Number of Items, Sum, Sum Squares, Mean, SD (N-1), and SD (N) for both the reference common items and the transformed new common items. The Sum Cross-Product and Correlation between the transformed new and reference common items will also be calculated and displayed in a column labeled "Jointly".
Additional statistics are produced and available to users beyond what is presented in the Data Visualization Studio. Refer to the RTSSTAT API and Download Statistics help documentation for more information regarding accessing all of the available statistics produced.
