Journal ArticleDOI
The Faces Pain Scale-Revised: toward a common metric in pediatric pain measurement.
Carrie L. Hicks,Carl L. von Baeyer,Pamela A. Spafford,Inez M. van Korlaar,Belinda Goodenough +4 more
TL;DR: The FPS‐R is shown to be appropriate for use in assessment of the intensity of children's acute pain from age 4 or 5 onward, and has the advantage of being suitable for use with the most widely used metric for scoring, and conforms closely to a linear interval scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inter-coder agreement for computational linguistics
TL;DR: It is argued that weighted, alpha-like coefficients, traditionally less used than kappa-like measures in computational linguistics, may be more appropriate for many corpus annotation tasks—but that their use makes the interpretation of the value of the coefficient even harder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the impact of partial factorial invariance on selection in two populations.
Roger E. Millsap,Oi-Man Kwok +1 more
TL;DR: This work evaluates the impact of partial invariance on accuracy of selection on the basis of a composite of the measures whose factor structure is being studied, assuming a single-factor model holds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modern psychometric methods for detection of differential item functioning: application to cognitive assessment measures
Jeanne A. Teresi,Marjorie Kleinman,Marjorie Kleinman,Katja Ocepek-Welikson,Katja Ocepek-Welikson +4 more
TL;DR: Using the methods of modern psychometric theory (in addition to those of classical test theory), the performance of the Attention subscale of the Mattis Dementia Rating Scale was examined and bias in screening measures across education and ethnic and racial subgroups was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling patterns of agreement and disagreement.
TL;DR: A survey of ways of statistically modelling patterns of observer agreement and disagreement is presented, with main emphasis on modelling inter-observer agreement for categorical responses, both for nominal and ordinal response scales.

Journal ArticleDOI
A Coefficient of agreement for nominal Scales
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a procedure for having two or more judges independently categorize a sample of units and determine the degree, significance, and significance of the units. But they do not discuss the extent to which these judgments are reproducible, i.e., reliable.

Statistical Theories of Mental Test Scores
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of test theory models and their application in the field of mental test analysis. But the focus of the survey is on test-score theories and models, and not the practical applications and limitations of each model studied.

Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Observer Error-Rates Using the EM Algorithm
A. P. Dawid,A. M. Skene +1 more
TL;DR: The EM algorithm is shown to provide a slow but sure way of obtaining maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters of interest in compiling a patient record.
