Relationships among test factor structure, test hierarchical structure, and test inter-item dependency structure. Applied Psychological Measurement, 8, 199-205. doi:10.1177/014662168400800208doi:10.1177/014662168400800208https://hdl.handle.net/11299/101885In previous research, no relationship was found between test factor structure and test hierarchical structure. This study found some correspondence between test factor structure and test inter-item dependency structure, as measured by a log-linear model. There was an inconsistency, however, which warrants further study: More significant two-item interactions were found for the set of items that had been found to be most heterogeneous by latent trait techniques, rather than for the more homogeneous set of items.enArticle
