Abstract | We propose a new limited-information goodness of fit test statistic C[subscript 2] for ordinal IRT models. The construction of the new statistic lies formally between the M[subscript 2] statistic of Maydeu-Olivares and Joe (2006), which utilizes first and second order marginal probabilities, and the M*[subscript 2] statistic of Cai and Hansen (2013), which collapses the marginal probabilities into means and product moments. Unlike M*[subscript 2], C[subscript 2] may be computed even when the number of items is small and the number of categories is large. It is as well calibrated as the alternatives and can be more powerful than M[subscript 2]. When all items are dichotomous, C[subscript 2] becomes equivalent to M*[subscript 2], which is also equivalent to M[subscript 2]. We analyze empirical data from a patient-reported outcomes measurement development project to illustrate the potential differences in substantive conclusions that one may draw from the use of different statistics for model fit assessment.
