Interpreting the differences between mean scale scores across various forms of an assessment can be challenging. This difficulty arises from different mappings between raw scores and scale scores, complex mathematical relationships, adjustments based on judgmental procedures, and diverse equating functions applied to different assessment forms. An alternative method involves running simulations to explore the effect of incrementing raw scores on mean scale scores. The idmact package provides an implementation of this approach based on the algorithm detailed in Schiel (1998) <https://www.act.org/content/dam/act/unsecured/documents/ACT_RR98-01.pdf> which was developed to help interpret differences between mean scale scores on the American College Testing (ACT) assessment. The function idmact_subj() within the package offers a framework for running simulations on subject-level scores. In contrast, the idmact_comp() function provides a framework for conducting simulations on composite scores.

It performs interlaboratory studies (ILS) to detect those laboratories that provide non-consistent results when comparing to others. It permits to work simultaneously with various testing materials, from standard univariate, and functional data analysis (FDA) perspectives. The univariate approach based on ASTM E691-08 consist of estimating the Mandel's h and k statistics to identify those laboratories that provide more significant different results, testing also the presence of outliers by Cochran and Grubbs tests, Analysis of variance (ANOVA) techniques are provided (F and Tuckey tests) to test differences in means corresponding to different laboratories per each material. Taking into account the functional nature of data retrieved in analytical chemistry, applied physics and engineering (spectra, thermograms, etc.). ILS package provides a FDA approach for finding the Mandel's k and h statistics distribution by smoothing bootstrap resampling.

Simulation of the random evolution of heterogeneous populations using stochastic Individual-Based Models (IBMs) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2303.06183>. The package enables users to simulate population evolution, in which individuals are characterized by their age and some characteristics, and the population is modified by different types of events, including births/arrivals, death/exit events, or changes of characteristics. The frequency at which an event can occur to an individual can depend on their age and characteristics, but also on the characteristics of other individuals (interactions). Such models have a wide range of applications. For instance, IBMs can be used for simulating the evolution of a heterogeneous insurance portfolio with selection or for validating mortality forecasts. This package overcomes the limitations of time-consuming IBMs simulations by implementing new efficient algorithms based on thinning methods, which are compiled using the Rcpp package while providing a user-friendly interface.
