Abstract
Since its release in 1976, Wingersky, Barton, and
Lord’s (1982) LOGIST has been the most widely used
computer program for estimating the parameters of the
three-parameter logistic item response model. An alternative
program, Mislevy and Bock’s (1983) BILOG,
has recently become available. This paper compares
the approaches taken by the two programs and offers
some guidelines for choosing between the two programs
for particular applications. Index terms:
Bayesian estimation, BILOG, IRT estimation procedures,
LOGIST, marginal maximum likelihood, maximum likelihood,
three-parameter logistic model estimation procedures.
