Function renaming in easyRasch2 0.8.0 — easyRasch2-renaming • easyRasch2

In version 0.8.0, 22 exported functions were renamed under a consistent domain-prefix \(\to\) method \(\to\) variant-suffix scheme. The renames have no semantic effect — only names changed. Use the table below to migrate existing scripts.

Domain prefixes

RMdif — differential item functioning
RMlocdep — local dependence
RMitem — per-item statistics (fit, restscore, ICC, hierarchy)
RMdim — dimensionality assessment
RMplot — descriptive response-distribution plots

Variant suffixes attached at the end:

Cutoff — simulation-based critical values
Plot — visualisation
MI — multiple-imputation variant (replaces former _mi)

No deprecation aliases

No deprecation shims are shipped: each old name is simply gone. This keeps the export list clean ahead of the first CRAN submission. Run a search-and-replace against the table above to migrate.
