Recent methodological and technological advances have made item response modelling of forced-choice data possible, and new approaches to creating and scoring forced-choice tests have emerged. The use of forced-choice formats is likely to prove beneficial in assessments of other individuals, organizations or services. The forced-choice formats may be useful in research involving personal or sensitive information. This chapter describes popular scaling methods for forced-choice responses. Before considering the logic of the item response theory (IRT) models, however, it introduces a suitable coding system for forced-choice responses. The Thurstonian IRT model is currently the only one that can be readily applied to data collected with existing multidimensional forced-choice questionnaires, with the additional objectives of estimating item parameters and relationships between the latent attributes. Pairwise comparisons using graded preferences, and compositional forced-choice formats are yet to be explored, therefore more research on forced-choice questionnaire design is needed.
