Measurement of observer agreement.
Statistical measures are described that are used in diagnostic imaging for expressing observer agreement in regard to categorical data. The measures are used to characterize the reliability of imaging methods and the reproducibility of disease classifications and, occasionally with great care, as the surrogate for accuracy. The review concentrates on the chance-corrected indices, kappa and weig...
متن کاملAssessing observer agreement in studies involving replicated binary observations.
We propose a new approach to evaluating agreement between two observers making binary observations on a set of subjects. This approach compares the probability of disagreement (or discordance) between the observers to the probability of disagreement between replicated observations made by the same observer on the same subject. We consider two situations: (1) a symmetric assessment of agreement ...
متن کاملVerbal and nominal agreement: An fMRI study
Agreement computation is one of the pillars of language comprehension. In this fMRI study, we investigated the neuro-cognitive processes of agreement associated with number feature covariance in subject-verb agreement and determiner-noun concord in Spanish by creating mismatches (ella/*ellas corre, she/*they dances vs. el/*los anillo, thesg/*thepl ring). The results evidenced the engagement of ...
متن کاملInter-Observer Agreement in Measuring Respiratory Rate
BACKGROUND Respiratory rate (RR) is an important vital sign which is strongly correlated with in-hospital mortality. At the same time, RR is the most likely vital sign to be omitted when assessing a patient. We believe that one reason for this could be the difficulty in measure the RR, since it is not read off a monitor, but counted manually. Also there is the possibility of assessment bias and...
متن کاملInter-observer agreement in myelodysplastic syndromes.
We read with great interest the recent paper by Senent et al. and the accompanying editorial on the reproducibility of WHO 2008 criteria and inter-observer agreement regarding the assessment of dysplasia for diagnosis and classification of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The reproducibility of any composite criteria is mainly based on both the constituting components and the precise manner in ...
