Description: Procedures for Psychological, Psychometric, and Personality Research
 A general purpose toolbox developed originally for personality,
 psychometric theory and experimental psychology. Functions are primarily
 for multivariate analysis and scale construction using factor analysis,
 principal component analysis, cluster analysis and reliability analysis,
 although others provide basic descriptive statistics. Item Response Theory
 is done using factor analysis of tetrachoric and polychoric correlations.
 Functions for analyzing data at multiple levels include within and
 between group statistics, including correlations and factor analysis.
 Validation and cross validation of scales developed using basic machine
 learning algorithms are provided, as are functions for simulating and testing
 particular item and test structures. Several functions serve as a useful front
 end for structural equation modeling. Graphical displays of path diagrams,
 including mediation models, factor analysis and structural equation models
 are created using basic graphics. Some of the functions are written to support
 a book on psychometric theory as well as publications in personality research.
