Note: df is degrees of freedom for distance measures; LogLU is the log-likelihood under the unidimensional model; LogLB is the log-likelihood under the bifactor model; INDCHI is individual contribution to chi-square; dsU is “implausibility” distance in unidimensional model; dsB is “implausibility” distance in bifactor model; ωU is case weight based on dsU in unidimensional model; ωB is case weight based on dsB in bifactor model; drU is “unmodelability” distance in unidimensional model; drB is “unmodelability” distance in bifactor model; PU and PB are significance levels of drU and drB respectively; PN is the difference between scores based on positively-worded items and negatively-worded items.
