Rater reliability and "judgmental fatigue."

Abstract

"Subjects (N = 120) were randomly divided into six groups and asked to rate a total of 45 food stimuli for preference value using a nine-point scale… . Rater reliability was significantly different between the individual lists, but was not affected by either the length of the list or by the temporal order of the list in the series. Rater bias was unaffected by list, length, or trial variables. It was concluded that "judgmental fatigue" does not affect rater reliability or bias when the Ss report food preference self-ratings.
