		Differential Item Functioning Using Robust Scaling // Provides
		tools for testing differential item functioning (DIF) and
		differential test functioning (DTF) in two-group item response
		theory models. The package estimates robust scaling parameters
		via iteratively reweighted least squares with Tukey's bisquare
		loss, and supports Wald-type tests of item-level and test-level
		differences from robust scaling parameters. Inputs can be
		supplied directly from model parameter/covariance objects or
		extracted from fitted 'mirt' and 'lavaan' models. Methods are
		described in Halpin (2022) doi:10.48550/arXiv.2207.04598.
