Additive Conjoint Measurement and Rasch

New insights into Additive Conjoint Measurement (Luce & Tukey, 1964) are provided by Newby et al. (2010):

1. "an ordered conjoint structure has an additive representation if and only if it has a Rasch representation" (p. 10)

2. "not all data to which the Rasch model could be applied is data to which the Rasch model should be applied" (p. 5, italics authors')
