The Relation between Score Resolution Methods and Interrater Reliability: An Empirical Study of an Analytic Scoring Rubric.
Johnson, Robert L.; Penny, James; Gordon, Belita
Applied Measurement in Education, v13 n2 p121-38 2000
Studied four forms of score resolution used by testing agencies and investigated the effect that each has on the interrater reliability associated with the resulting operational scores. Results, based on 120 essays from the Georgia High School Writing Test, show some forms of resolution to be associated with higher reliability and some associated with artificially inflated interrater reliability.
