UEXTREME= include extreme scores for UIMEAN= or UPMEAN= No |
In unanchored analyses, the item difficulties are centered by UIMEAN= or the person abilities are centered by UPMEAN=.
UEXTREME = No (the default). Do not include items or persons with extreme scores (minimum possible or maximum possible) when computing the centering.
UEXTREME = Yes. Do include items or persons with extreme scores (minimum possible or maximum possible) when computing the centering.
Example: using Exam1..txt
UIMEAN=0 and UEXTREME=No (items with extreme scores excluded when setting the local origin at zero)
