"How does one translate a logit value back to a raw score?"
L.C.
A motivation for constructing measures is to obtain units, e.g., logits, as independent as possible of the original raw score system. But logit-to-raw-score conversion is usually straightforward. If every person is observed on every item, then a conversion table is easy to construct. Compute the measure for every possible raw score using a method such as "Estimating measures..." in RMT 12:2. If different people are observed on different items, such as with adaptive testing, then you must specify which items are to be included in the raw score computation.
