title: Construction of measures from many-facet data.
abstract: An extension to the Rasch model for fundamental measurement is described in which there is parameterization not only for examinee ability and item difficulty but also for judge severity. Variants of this model are discussed and judging plans reviewed. Its use and characteristics are explained by an application of the model to an empirical testing situation. A comparison with Generalizability Theory using a common data set is presented as a contrast in approaches to resolving judge indeterminacy.
