Plot Individual Parameter MCMC Traces

Displays MCMC trace plots for individual item or person parameters, useful for diagnosing mixing and convergence of specific parameters. Requires ggplot2.

Usage

dpmirt_plot_parameter_trace(
  fit,
  param = c("beta", "theta", "lambda", "delta"),
  indices = 1:4,
  ...
)

Arguments

fit

A dpmirt_fit object from dpmirt.

param

Character. Parameter type: "beta", "theta", "lambda", or "delta".

indices

Integer vector of parameter indices to plot. Default: 1:4.

...

Currently unused.

Value

A ggplot object.
