Estimation of two-parameter multilevel item response models with predictor variables: simulation and substantiation for an urban school district

The most recent development in the field of Item Response Theory (IRT) has been the evaluation of IRT models as multilevel models, known as Multilevel IRT models (MLIRT). These models offer several statistical and practical advantages over ordinary IRT models. However, models such as 2-PL MLIRT mode...
