Abstract

A unified treatment of agreement coefficients for multiple raters is shown, where the chance-expected proportions of the Bennett et al.-type, Scott-type, its new variation, and Cohen-type are dealt with using full or lower-order agreement among raters. When only pairwise agreement is used for multiple raters, chance corrections of the Gwet-type and its new variation are also considered. For the unified treatment, Conger’s two formulas of the ratio of means and the mean of ratios are combined into a parent formula of the weighted mean of weighted ratios. The corresponding unified expressions of their new asymptotic results are presented.
