A Study of the Inter-Rater Reliability of the Behavioral Characteristics Progression

The purposes of this study were to compare the consistency of assessment between (1) a team of evaluators composed of personnel from a visiting state school; (2) the home team of evaluators and similar data, currently available for the subjects; (3) the visiting team of evaluators and similar data, currently available for the subjects; and (k) specific professional members of the team of evaluators from the home school personnel and the similar professional members from the visiting school personnel. The study concluded the following: 1. The general reliability of the Modified Behavioral Characteristics Progression for two sets of raters was acceptable. 2. Visiting teams consistently rated the subjects more skilled than either the computer data, or home team data. 3. The data suggest that the behaviors are not in a, linear or developmental sequence. The reliability of the computerized data appears to be weaker than the other two sources.
