Many thanks to all those who replied to this thread on and off list. This list is a mine of useful information,
populated by some very skillful miners! I think I have read all the messages in this thread, though it's a little difficult
to navigate the digest with the browser I am using.

Please can anyone tell me what IRT stands for and offer some references on how to go about it, in relation to a
previously constructed scale?

with thanks,

Laurie
