Kappa coefficients in medical research 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Kappa coefficients are measures of correlation between categorical variables often used as reliability or validity coefficients. We recapitulate development and definitions of the K (categories) by M (ratings) kappas (K x M), discuss what they are well- or ill-designed to do, and summarize where kappas now stand with regard to their application in medical research. The 2 x M(M>/=2) intraclass kappa seems the ideal measure of binary reliability; a 2 x 2 weighted kappa is an excellent choice, though not a unique one, as a validity measure. For both the intraclass and weighted kappas, we address continuing problems with kappas. There are serious problems with using the K x M intraclass (K>2) or the various K x M weighted kappas for K>2 or M>2 in any context, either because they convey incomplete and possibly misleading information, or because other approaches are preferable to their use. We illustrate the use of the recommended kappas with applications in medical research. 相似文献

This study compared the Jamar and Rolyan hydraulic dynamometers to determine their concurrent validity with known weights as well as their inter-instrument reliability and concurrent validity for measuring grip strength in a clinical setting. Thirty females and 30 males were tested on these two grip strength measurement devices using a repeated measure design. Results showed that the Jamar and Rolyan dynamometers have acceptable concurrent validity with known weights (that is, correlation coefficients were r > or = 0.9994), excellent inter-instrument reliability (that is, intraclass correlation coefficients ranged from 0.90 to 0.97) and strong concurrent validity (that is, no significant differences between dynamometers' scores). Data indicate that Jamar and Rolyan dynamometers measure grip strength equivalently and can be used interchangeably. Thus, therapists using the Rolyan dynamometer are justified in using published normative data, which were collected with the Jamar dynamometer. 相似文献

A summary performance measure comprised of a hierarchical balance task, a 4-meter walk, and five repetitive chair stands is increasingly being used as a predictor of independent living for older persons. The reliability and sensitivity to change of this summary performance measure have not been investigated, however. Because a measure can be reliable while being unresponsive to change, this study presents information on both the reliability and sensitivity to change for the summary performance measure. This is a 3-year prospective cohort study of 1,002 moderately to severely disabled older women. Short- and long-term reliability was assessed by intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). Sensitivity to change was assessed by slope differences for three age categories (65-74, 75-84, and >or=85) over six 6-month follow-up periods. Sensitivity to change was also assessed by summary performance change scores for those who did and did not suffer from one of four medical events [myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, hip fracture, or congestive heart failure (CHF)] at follow-up. The summary performance measure showed excellent reliability. Intraclass correlation coefficients ranged from 0.88 to 0.92 for measures made 1 week apart. The 6-month average intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.77 (range 0.72-0.79). The summary performance measure was also highly responsive to change. Subjects who suffered an incident MI, stroke, hip fracture, or CHF at follow-up were significantly more likely to have poorer summary performance change scores (-2.25) compared with those who did not have one of these medical events (-0.24). Additionally, subjects who suffered one of these events improved their summary performance scores in the following assessment period by 0.72. With increasing utilization of the summary performance measure by researchers and clinicians it is important that the measurement properties of this instrument are known. Our results show that the summary performance measure has excellent reliability and is highly sensitive to change. 相似文献

Intraclass correlation coefficients are designed to assess consistency or conformity between two or more quantitative measurements. When multistage cluster sampling is implemented, no methods are readily available to estimate intraclass correlations of binomial-distributed outcomes within a cluster. Because statistical distribution of the intraclass correlation coefficients could be complicated or unspecified, we propose using a bootstrap method to estimate the standard error and confidence interval within the framework of a multilevel generalized linear model. We compared the results derived from a parametric bootstrap method with those from a non-parametric bootstrap method and found that the non-parametric method is more robust. For non-parametric bootstrap sampling, we showed that the effectiveness of sampling on the highest level is greater than that on lower levels; to illustrate the effectiveness, we analyse survey data in China and do simulation studies. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: There is little research identifying medical students' attitudes towards communication skills learning. This pilot study outlines the development of a new scale to measure attitudes towards communication skills learning. METHODS: First- and second-year medical students (n = 490) completed the 26-item Communication Skills Attitude Scale (CSAS) and 39 students completed the CSAS on a second occasion. Factor analysis was conducted to determine the factors underpinning the scale. The internal consistency of the subscales was determined using alpha coefficients. The test-retest reliability of the individual scale items were determined using weighted kappa coefficients and the test-retest reliability of the subscales were established using intraclass correlation coefficients. RESULTS: Maximum likelihood extraction with direct oblimin rotation resulted in a 2-factor scale with 13 items on each subscale. Factor I represented positive attitudes towards communication skills learning and factor II represented negative attitudes. Subscale I had an internal consistency of alpha=0.873 and an intraclass correlation of 0.646 (P < 0.001). Subscale II had an internal consistency of alpha=0.805 and an intraclass correlation of 0.771 (P < 0.001). The majority of items on the positive (n=9, 69.2%) and the negative attitude subscales (n=8, 61.5%) possessed moderate test-retest reliability. DISCUSSION: The development of a new and reliable scale to identify medical students' attitudes towards communication skills learning will enable researchers to explore the relationships between medical students' attitudes and their demographic and education-related characteristics. Further work is needed to validate this scale among a broader population of medical students. 相似文献

The use of multiple reading procedures to improve the performance of a diagnostic test occurs often in practice. Evaluation of the utility of multiple reading procedures, however, usually ignores the effect of the intraclass correlation. This paper provides a quantitative assessment of this effect in the multiple reading procedure with a unanimity rule with respect to sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values. We have found that when the disease prevalence is rare or moderate (less than or equal to 0.20), use of the multiple reading procedure with a unanimity rule is effective in increasing the positive predictive value of a single reading procedure for the situation in which the variation of responses among different subjects and the intraclass correlation among repeated tests are small. This is, however, not true for the situation in which the disease is rare and the variation of responses among different subjects is large, even when the intraclass correlation is small or 0. Furthermore, when the disease is rare and the variation of responses among subjects is small, a small or moderate intraclass correlation can substantially decrease the positive predictive value that one calculates under the assumption that the intraclass correlation is equal to 0. In general, when the disease is rare or moderate (less than or equal to 0.20), the intraclass correlation between repeated tests and the variation of responses among subjects have little effect on the negative predictive value. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To determine the interobserver reliability of radiologists' interpretations of mobile chest radiographs for nursing home-acquired pneumonia. DESIGN: A cross-sectional reliability study. SETTING: Nursing homes and an acute care hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Four radiologists reviewed 40 mobile chest radiographs obtained from residents of nursing homes who met a clinical definition of lower respiratory tract infections. MEASUREMENTS: Radiologists were asked to interpret radiographs with respect to the film quality; presence, pattern, and extent of an infiltrate; and the presence of a pleural effusion or adenopathy. Interrater reliability was evaluated using the intraclass correlation coefficient derived from a 2-way random effects model. RESULTS: On average the radiologists reported that 6 of the 40 films were of very good or excellent quality and 16 of the 40 were of fair or poor quality. When the finding of an infiltrate was dichotomized (0 = no; 1 = possible, probable, or definite) all 4 radiologists agreed on 21 of the 37 chest radiographs. The intraclass correlation coefficient for the presence or absence of infiltrates was 0.54 (95% confidence intervals [CI] 0.38 to 0.69). For the 14 radiographs where infiltrates were observed by all radiologists, intraclass correlation coefficients for the presence of pleural effusions was 0.08 (95% CI -0.10 to 0.41), hilar adenopathy 0.54 (95% CI 0.29 to 0.79), and mediastinal adenopathy 0.49 (95% CI 0.21 to 0.76). CONCLUSION: In conclusion, the interrater agreement among radiologists for mobile chest radiographs in establishing the presence or absence of an infiltrate can be judged to be "fair." Treatment decisions need to include clinical findings and should not be made based on radiographic findings alone. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To investigate which method of ankle-arm index (AAI) measurement in terms of selected arteries and blood pressure devices yields the highest reproducibility. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: In this cross-sectional study, duplicate AAI measurements were obtained at the right and left side in 320 postmenopausal women. Analyses were done as proposed by Bland and Altman and intraclass correlation coefficients were calculated. RESULTS: The mean and standard deviation (SD) of the first and second systolic blood pressure (SBP) measurement separately did not differ from the mean and SD of the duplicate SBP measurements averaged. Coefficients of repeatability and intraclass correlation coefficients were comparable when the ankle SBP was measured in the posterior tibial artery or dorsalis pedis artery. Coefficients of repeatability as well as the intraclass correlation were better when the SBP in the brachial artery was measured with Doppler than with Dinamap. CONCLUSIONS: To achieve the best reproducibility and smallest systematic difference in the AAI, single SBP measurements should be obtained by Doppler in the brachial artery, posterior tibial artery and dorsalis pedis artery. The AAI should be calculated for each foot separately by dividing the highest ankle SBP by the highest arm SBP. 相似文献

The objective of most epidemiological studies is to classify/rank people according to their relative quantity of consumption. In the specific case of quantifying fish consumption, in order to assess mercury intake rate, the method used must estimate the individual quantity consumed accurately, or from the self-referred quantity it must be possible to estimate the real consumption-termed calibration. Therefore, the objective of this study was to validate and calibrate the 24-h recall method for assessing the amount of fish consumed to estimate the mercury intake in riverine populations from Baixada Cuiabana, in Pantanal Mato-grossense, Brazil. The weighed dietary method was used as the reference standard, and the validity of the 24-h recall method was assessed using correlation coefficients (r), regression coefficients (beta), and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The results showed that the ICC, which assesses the agreement level between measures, was a more adequate measure than the correlation coefficient (r). Therefore, the calibration equation was calculated applying a multiple linear regression model using the consumption mean of the second and third days, which presented the highest ICC, stratified by sex and adjusted by age and season variables. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: This paper provides intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) for estimation of sample size inflation required in future cluster randomised trials in primary or residential care. METHODS: Three cluster randomised trials were conducted among middle-aged and older adults in primary care and residential care in Australia and New Zealand between 1995 and 2002. Baseline means or proportions, mean change, and ICCs with their standard errors and 95% confidence intervals are reported for outcome variables used in the three studies. The ICCs were estimated from a one-way random effects model using the analysis of variance method. RESULTS: ICCs for quality of life and psychological variables in the primary care studies were low (below 0.018). ICCs for clinical and physical activity variables ranged from 0 to 0.08. ICCs for health and functional status in residential care for the elderly were high, ranging from 0.025 to 0.514. CONCLUSIONS: The magnitude of the intraclass correlation varies with the venue of the trial, the outcome variables used, and the expected effect of the intervention. However, the intraclass correlations provided will be useful for more appropriate planning of residential and primary care-based trials in the future. 相似文献
