Fig. 6: Correspondance between ResIN and IRT for simulated data.
From: Response Item Network (ResIN): A network-based approach to explore attitude systems

a An example of the IC curves used for simulating one of the items. Notice how curves have different amplitudes, standard deviations, and even shapes. b Position estimated by the ResIN method versus the mean of the corresponding IC curve for the case of 8 items and 5 levels.
