have a look at function rmvlogis() from package ltm, e.g.,

library(ltm)

p <- 5
n <- 10
a <- rnorm(p, 0.8, 0.04)
b <- rnorm(p, 0, 1)

?rmvlogis
rmvlogis(n, cbind(b, a))


I hope it helps.

Best,
Dimitris

hello R:
we have a two-parameter IRT simulation code. The goal is to generate a
response matrix.But the "for" part doesn't run. we don't know what is wrong
with it.

Thanks so much~~~

I<- 10
J<- 5
response<- matrix(0, 10, 5)
pij<- function(a,b,theta)
{
a<- rnorm(J, 0.8, 0.04)
a
b<- rnorm(J, 0, 1)
b
theta<- rnorm(I, 0,1)
theta
for( i in 1:I ) {
        for( j in 1:J ) {
ptemp<- runif(1)
                pij<- exp(a[j]*(theta[i]-b[j]))/(1+exp(a[j]*(theta[i]-b[j])))
        response[i,j]<-ifelse(pij(b=b[j], a=a[j], theta[i])<  ptemp , 0 ,1)

}
}
}
response
