Hi Nick and Scott,
Thank you for the response. But the concord and other
tests contained in it are only for 2 observers/raters.
I am looking for something that calculates
interobserver agreement for a continuous variable WHEN
THERE ARE MORE THAN 3 RATERS AND THE number of raters
vary for each subject ?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Nitin
