Popis: This paper treats a so called pseudo exact or conditional approach of testing assumptions of a psychometric model known as the Rasch model. Draxler and Zessin derived the power function of such tests. They provide an alternative to asymptotic or large sample theory, i.e., chi square tests, since they are also valid in small sample scenarios. This paper suggests an extension and applies it in a research context of investigating the effects of response times. In particular, the interest lies in the examination of the influence of response times on the unidimensionality assumption of the model. A real data example is provided which illustrates its application, including a power analysis of the test, and points to possible drawbacks.
