abstract: Implements methods for analyzing latent variable models with measurement
  error correction, including Item Response Theory (IRT) models. Provides tools for
  various correction methods such as Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), over-imputation,
  bootstrapping for robust standard errors, Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), and Instrumental
  Variables (IV) based approaches. Supports flexible specification of observable indicators
  and groupings for latent variable analyses in social sciences and other fields.
  Methods are described in a working paper (2025) <https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2507.22218>.
