mcqAnalysis: Classical Test Theory Item Analysis for Multiple-Choice Tests

A unified toolkit for classical test theory (CTT) item analysis of multiple-choice test data, including item difficulty (p-value), item discrimination (point-biserial correlation and upper-lower 27-percent discrimination index), per-distractor analysis (frequency, proportion, and discrimination), and Haladyna's distractor efficiency. A wrapper function returns a tidy 'mcq_analysis' object with print, plot (difficulty-discrimination scatter), and APA-style table methods for direct inclusion in journal manuscripts. Implemented in pure R with no compiled code and minimal dependencies.
