Option 4 is the key incomplete with no proper explanation provided. Do you know
what this figure is about?
Pule, Hes, Werner

representation of the information provided for Item 2.1 in Table 3
Pule: If your assumption is correct, Hes, the figure expresses the item-
total correlation for Item 2.1

Question 2 Vera: So, what do the numbers on the X-axis mean?
Option 5 is the key Pule: I think the numbers on the X-axis represent the possible
responses to Item 2.1
Werner, Pule, Hes Hes: If the numbers on the X-axis represent the possible responses to
Item 2.1 it means five people completed the item

Option 1 is the key they stand for?
Werner, Hes, Pule Pule: The numbers in the square brackets are discrimination values.
They reflect the proportion of individuals who completed the
item correctly

particular individual
, Werner: For example, [1] means that participant 1 obtained a total score
of 44 and also disagreed strongly with the statement that
