Hi, Phil.

I want to run the multilevel bifactor model without the mirt.model() function. Because sometimes I felt bfactor() function style item location specification is more convenient for me. Do you have any idea for the shortcut to run multilevel bifactor model even make a detour? If you do not have any ideas, May I make a new syntax parser linking among the bfactor style model specification to the mirt.model() style parser?

Best regards,

It sounds like it, though I think there is a hidden attribute in the model 'bfactor' that you may want to set to NULL first. But generally I don't think it's harmful if you're using the MH-RM algorithm (should only kick in when method = 'EM').
