Data used for IRT analysis in the article "The Multiscent-20: A Digital Odour Identification Test Developed with Item<br> Response Theory", with the following authors: Marcio Nakanishi 1, *, Pedro Renato de Paula Brandão 2, *, Gustavo Subtil Magalhães<br> Freire 1 , Luis Gustavo do Amaral Vinha 3 , Marco Aurélio Fornazieri 4 , Wilma Terezinha<br> Anselmo Lima 5 , Claudia Galvão 6 , Thomas Hummel 7 1 Department of Otorhinolaryngology, University Hospital of Brasília, University of<br> Brasília, Brasília, DF, Brazil<br> 2 Neurology Department, Hospital Sírio-Libanês, Brasília, DF, Brazil<br> 3 Statistics Department, University of Brasília, DF, Brazil<br> 4 State University of Londrina, Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná<br> 5 Department of Ophthalmology and Otorhinolaryngology, Ribeirão Preto Medical<br> School-University of São Paulo, Brazil<br> 6 NOAR Brasil Ltda, São Paulo-SP, Brazil<br> 7 Smell and Taste Clinic, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Technical University of<br> Dresden, Dresden, Germany MultiScent-20 descrition: The Multiscent-20 is a portable tablet computer with an integrated hardware<br> system consisting of a central processing unit, touchscreen, Wi-Fi antenna, USB dock,<br> power supply, and rechargeable battery. Additionally, it contains an odour system<br> composed of 20 microcartridges, an air filter, a system that generates a dry air stream,<br> and an odour-dispensing opening. The device is capable of presenting 20 different<br> odours from individual odour capsules, which store the olfactory stimuli by incorporating<br> the odours into an oil-resistant polymer. The capsules are loaded through an insertion<br> port on the back of the device.<br> A software-controlled processing unit governs the flow of dry air, generating a<br> constant air stream that passes through the capsule, releasing individual odours<br> through a small opening at the upper front of the device. In this study, each scent was<br> presented for 5 seconds, with an interval of at least 6 seconds between odour<br> presentations. Each capsule contained 35 µL of oil-based odour solution, allowing the<br> device to maintain consistent odour intensity and identifiability for up to 100 activations,<br> as per the manufacturer's instructions. The Givaudan Flavours and Fragrance<br> Corporation (São Paulo, Brazil) prepared the odours used in the capsules.<br> A digital application (software) was developed to present odours and record<br> olfactory function test results. The device delivers odours through a dry air system,<br> leaving no residue in the environment or on users. Users can access the test using an<br> application on the device (screen version) or mobile phone. The results are accessible<br> through the integrated software, allowing for storage and analysis of the data.
