Agreement of Personality Profiles across Observers.

McCrae, Robert R.

Multivariate Behavioral Research, v28 n1 p25-40 1993

To assess cross-observer agreement on personality profiles, an Index of Profile Agreement and an associated coefficient are proposed that take into account both the difference between the ratings and the extremes of their mean. Data from the Revised NEO Personality Inventory for 250 peer ratings/self-reports and 68 spouse ratings/self-reports illustrate use of the coefficient. (SLD)
