Reliability and Agreement in Measurement Probability and Statistical Research Multidisciplinary Science and Engineering Research

Abstract

A computationally convenient way to find average tau is pointed out, and the possibility is raised of simple chi-square tests of significance for average τ as well as Kendall's coefficient of agreement u. A method for obtaining the rank order of “best fit” to a group of rankings in terms of average tau is also discussed. Finally, an “analysis of agreement” is proposed based upon a partition of average tau into agreement within and between experimental groups.
