Differential Item Functioning (DIF) in composite health measurement scale: Recommendations for characterizing DIF with meaningful consequences within the Rasch model framework.

Differential Item Functioning (DIF) in composite health measurement scale: Recommendations for characterizing DIF with meaningful consequences within the Rasch model framework.

<h4>Objective</h4>The aims were to review practices concerning Differential Item Functioning (DIF) detection in composite measurement scales, particularly those used in health research, and to provide guidance on how to proceed if statistically significant DIF is detected.<h4>Metho...
