Hulteen, Ryan M.; True, Larissa; Kroc, Edward – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
The typical process for assessing inter-rater reliability is facilitated by training raters within a research team. Lacking is an understanding if inter-rater reliability scores "between" research teams demonstrate adequate reliability. This study examined inter-rater reliability between 16 researchers who assessed fundamental motor…

Zachary del Rosario – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2024
Variability is underemphasized in domains such as engineering. Statistics and data science education research offers a variety of frameworks for understanding variability, but new frameworks for domain applications are necessary. This study investigated the professional practices of working engineers to develop such a framework. The Neglected,…
