makeSimulationDataCache-methods function

Create a simulation data cache object

makeSimulationDataCache is a function for creating a simulation_data_cache object. This is used in Shadow to make all necessary data (e.g., item information, response data) prior to the main simulation. methods

makeSimulationDataCache(
  item_pool,
  info_type = "FISHER",
  theta_grid = seq(-4, 4, 0.1),
  seed = NULL,
  true_theta = NULL,
  response_data = NULL
)

## S4 method for signature 'item_pool'
makeSimulationDataCache(
  item_pool,
  info_type = "FISHER",
  theta_grid = seq(-4, 4, 0.1),
  seed = NULL,
  true_theta = NULL,
  response_data = NULL
)

Arguments

• item_pool: an item_pool object.
• info_type: the type of information.
• theta_grid: a grid of theta values.
• seed: (optional) seed to use for generating response data if needed.
• true_theta: (optional) true theta values of all simulees.
• response_data: (optional) response data on all items for all simulees.
