## Overview
**ShinyItemAnalysis** is an R package including functions and interactive shiny
application for the psychometric analysis of educational tests, psychological
assessments, health-related and other types of multi-item measurements, or
ratings from multiple raters. Offered methods include:

* Exploration of total and standard scores
 * Analysis of correlation structure and validity
 * Analysis of measurement error and reliability
 * Traditional item analysis
 * Item analysis with regression models
 * Item analysis with IRT models
 * Detection of differential item functioning
 * ... and more via add-on modules

Number of toy datasets is available, the interactive application also allows the
users to upload and analyze their own data and to automatically generate PDF or
HTML reports.

**ShinyItemAnalysis** is available online at [Czech Academy of Sciences](https://shiny.cs.cas.cz/ShinyItemAnalysis/) and [shinyapps.io](https://cemp.shinyapps.io/ShinyItemAnalysis/). It can be also downloaded from [**CRAN**](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=ShinyItemAnalysis). Visit our [**web page**](https://shinyitemanalysis.org/) about ShinyItemAnalysis to learn more!

```
</details>
