- Simulation setup similar to the one found in von Davier et al. (2009)
- The quantities printed in bolditalics and italics are those regression coefficient estimates that are adversely affected by the use of EAP, MLE as well as WLE estimates in the regression. These quantities are biased, while the estimates obtained using PVs are very close to the estimates calculated using the true person parameters
