I am using the eRm package to run the dichotomous Rasch model. My problem is that I can not manipulate the length of the x axis on the person-item map.
The description for the plotPImap command says to use xrange= to specify the range, but when I do so, I get the following error:
Error in xy.coords(x, y, xlabel, ylabel, log) :
'x' and 'y' lengths differ
Here is my code:
Model2 <- RM(EBL_MC)
plotPImap(Model2, xrange=c(-5:5), latdim = "Writing Achievement", main="Person-Item Map (EBL)")
Suggestions?
This is just a shot in the dark, since you haven’t provided a reproducible example, but generally when functions in R ask for an axis range argument, they are looking for only two values, the low and high. Try
xrange = c(-5,5).
