Guide for the calculation of ICC in SPSS Riekie de Vet This note presents three ways to calculate ICCs in SPSS, using the example in the paper by Shrout and Fleiss, 1979 1.

The awg agree-ment index can be applied to either a single item vector or a multiple item matrix representing a scale. The awg is an analogue to Cohen's kappa. Brown and Hauenstein (pages 177-178) recom- The use of interrater reliability (IRR) and interrater agreement (IRA) indices has increased dramatically during the past 20 years. This popularity is, at least in part, because of the increased role of multilevel modeling techniques (e.g., hierarchical linear modeling and multilevel structural equation modeling) in organizational research. This index is calculated by comparing an observed group variance with an expected random variance. As researchers have gained experience using this index, several questions have arisen. What are the consequences of replacing values beyond the unit interval by 0? What is the dependence of rWG(J) on the group size? Recently, a colleague of mine asked for some advice on how to compute interrater reliability for a coding task, and I discovered that there aren't many resources online written in an easy-to-understand format - most either 1) go in depth about formulas and computation or 2) go in depth about SPSS without giving many specific reas
