\title{Residuals, Personfit and Itemfit Statistics}
\description{\code{pmat} computes the theoretical person-item matrix with solving
probabilities for each category (except 0th). \code{residuals} computes the squared and standardized residuals based on
the observed and the expected person-item matrix. Chi-square based itemfit and personfit
statistics can be obtained by using \code{itemfit} and \code{personfit}. Corrected item-test correlations in \code{itemfit} are computed using the approach from Cureton (1966).
