In this study, the performance of the Lambda Coefficient of Rater-Mediated Agreement was
evaluated with other chance-corrected agreement coefficients. Lambda is grounded in rater …

Estimation of the degree of agreement between different raters is of crucial importance in
medical and social sciences. There are lots of different approaches proposed in the …

Applications of interrater agreement (IRA) statistics for Likert scales are plentiful in research
and practice. IRA may be implicated in job analysis, performance appraisal, panel …

Inter-rater agreement measures are used to estimate the degree of agreement between two
or more assessors. When the agreement table is ordinal, different weight functions that …

In this chapter, we generalize agreement assessment for continuous and categorical data to
cover multiple raters (k≥ 2), and each with multiple readings (m≥ 1) from each of the n …

Background Interrater reliability, aka intercoder reliability, is defined as true agreement
between raters, aka coders, without chance agreement. It is used across many disciplines …

Background: Many methods under the umbrella of inter-rater agreement (IRA) have been
proposed to evaluate how well two or more medical experts agree on a set of outcomes. The …
