Answer 1

Answer:

Inter-rater reliability

Explanation:

Inter-rater reliability is a commitment between rater and judges. if everybody agrees then inter-rater will be 100% or 1. If everyone disagrees then it will be 0% or 0. The main disadvantage it could not give any chance of agreement, and overestimated the agreement. It is referred to as the measurement of statistical data.
