Abstract
SummarySeveral coefficients have been suggested for the measurement of agreement between raters. Recently Maxwell (1977) has proposed, and Janes (1979) has extended, a new coefficient, which they have termed therandom errorcoefficient (RE).This paper criticizes their proposal and suggests that Cohen's (1960) coefficientkappa(K) is still the measure of choice.
