Anotace:	A successful data collection should always aim to uphold the integrity of a research project. In many scientific fields of study, data collection activities require adherence to guidelines and compliance with regulations. The consistency with which various observers or raters follow guidelines, and implement methods is essential for ensuring the interpretability and usefulness of data. Independent observers must be able to replicate processes and obtain comparable results. This book discusses many proven techniques and their use in evaluating the extent of agreement among observers. <p> The author explains in a clear and intuitive fashion the motivations and assumptions underlying each technique discussed in the book. He demonstrates the benefits of using basic level statistical thinking in the design and analysis of inter-rater reliability experiments. Interpretation and limitations of various techniques are extensively discussed. <p> From optimizing the design of the inter-rater reliability study to validating the computed agreement coefficients, the author's step-by-step approach is practical, easy to understand and will put all practitioners on the path to achieving their data quality objectives. <p> Contents<p> Acknowledgments .x<p> Chapter<p> 1.
