interrater reliability  

Definition

  • The concept of interrater reliability essentially refers to the relative consistency of the judgments that are made of the same stimulus by two or more raters. In survey research, interrater reliability relates to observations that in-person interviewers may make when they gather observational data about a respondent, a household, or a neighborhood in order to supplement the data gathered via a questionnaire.
