In this Table, the persons (rows) are sorted:

 

The items (columns) are sorted by measure. The easiest item (highest-scoring) is on the left. The item entry-numbers are in each column (vertically). In the Figure, the first is item 18. The items shown are those with the most-unexpected responses according to Table 6.1, but excluding items with no individually misfitting observations on the reported items. UCOUNT= sets the maximum number of items to report. LINELENGTH= controls the width of the table. "high" indicates where we expect to see high observations. "low" indicates where we expect to see low observations. Expected observations are replaced by ".'.

 

Each row contains:

Person entry number

Person label

Person outfit mean-square

Person letter (A-Z) in the Table 6.1.
