COMputational PSychometrics Group

The COMputational PSychometrics (COMPS) group is hosted by the Institute of Computer Science of the Czech Academy of Sciences. We are part of Department of Statistical Modelling. We collaborate with the Center for Educational Measurement and Psychometrics. We develop ShinyItemAnalysis and other psychometric software.

We have celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Institute of Computer Science!

We organize a half day short course for the IMPS 2025 conference on
the development of interactive shiny modules

University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, USA

We organize a full day workshop for EAM 2025 conference on
the modelling responses in multi-item measurements
with R and shiny

Register here!

Our new paper on
new estimation algorithms in generalized logistic regression models was published
in Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics

This is is us!
