Interobserver consistency for measurements of the intangible products of performance

Abstract

8 performance tests (5 for Naval aviation structural mechanic tasks, 3 for aerial photographer tasks) were constructed to be scored by the check-list method. 4 types of items were included: observations of procedures followed, observations of adherence to safety precautions, observations of use of tools and equipment, and measurements of final products. Items in the first 3 areas were intangible measurements; items in the last area were tangible. Percentage of interexaminer agreement failed to reveal superior consistency for the tangible measures.
