[R] Nominal Respose Model in R

AFAIK there exist functions to fit IRT models only for ordinal data.

In particular, look at function grm() that fits the Graded Response  
Model in the 'ltm' package (using Marginal Maximum Likelihood),  
function PCM() in the 'eRm' package (using Condtional Maximum  
Likelihood), and function MCMCordfactanal() in the 'MCMCpack' package  
(using a Bayesian approach).

I hope it helps.

Best,
Dimitris
