Measurement and Reliability: Statistical Thinking Considerations
Open accessAbstract
Reliability is defined as the degree to which multiple assessments of a subject agree (reproducibility). There is increasing awareness among researchers that the two most appropriate measures of reliability are the intraclass correlation coefficient and kappa. However, unacceptable statistical measures of reliability such as chi-square, percent agreement, product moment correlation, as well as any measure of association and Yule's Y still appear in the literature. There are costs associated with improper measurements, unreliable diagnostic systems, inappropriate statistics and measures of reliability, and poor quality research. Costs are incurred when misleading information directs resources and talents into nonproductive avenues of research. The consequences of unreliable measurements and diagnosis are illustrated with some studies of schizophrenia.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
