Instrument reliability
biophysiological measure
self-report measure
observational measure
Intrarater reliability
the consistency with which one rater
assigns scores to a single set of
responses on two occasions
Interrater reliability
the consistency of performance
among different raters in assigning
the same scores to the same object
or responses
Intrasubject reliability
test-retest
is dependent on the two
