The third line indicates the properties of the test or scale. Again, we are modeling with the Nominal model, hence "NO". "NC=(5(0)10)" is a shorter alternative to what we have in the *.in1 file. It indicates that there are 10 items all with 5 options each. Again, with the Nominal model MULTILOG requires a "high" option to be indicated, thus we can use "HI=(5(0)10)" to indicate that the fifth option for all ten items are scored as the "highest" category.
