SEMinR function to compare CV-PAT loss of two models

Description

'assess_cvpat' conducts a single model CV-PAT assessment against item average and linear model benchmarks.

Usage

assess_cvpat(
  seminr_model,
  testtype = "two.sided",
  nboot = 2000,
  seed = 123,
  technique = predict_DA,
  noFolds = NULL,
  reps = NULL,
  cores = NULL
)

Arguments

seminr_model

The SEMinR model for CV-PAT comparison.

testtype

Either "two.sided" (default) or "greater".

nboot

The number of bootstrap subsamples to execute (defaults to 2000).

seed

The seed for reproducibility (defaults to 123).

technique

predict_EA or predict_DA (default).

noFolds

Mumber of folds for k-fold cross validation.

reps

Number of repetitions for cross validation.

cores

Number of cores for parallelization.

Value

A matrix of the estimated loss and results of significance testing.
