Agreement between studies
Locked
 
|
Hello,
I need to find the agreement between previous studies on the elements of sustainability practice in campus. for example: I have 7 studies done by difference universities. Each of the 7 studies have difference elements but at the same time, some of the elements in these 7 studies are the same. Thus, I've list out all the elements and need to narrow them down through the elements AGREED THE MOST between the 7 studies. Can I applied Cohen's Kappa in this example? or is there any better method can be use? Thank you in advance. Regard, Laila |

We need to know much more detail. In the 7 studies, do the common elements have the same variable names? If yes, you can probably use MATCH FILES <file list> /KEEP <varlist> . . where the varlist includes case ID as well. If no, you can always use RENAME VARIABLES to make sure all the common variables have the the same name(s). In either case File >> Save As . . and use a different file name. I can give further advice and assistance [off-list] if you send me (in complete confidence according to professional Codes of Conduct) the *.sav files and any relevant documentation (eg questionnaire or output from: Display Labels for each of the *.sav files).

Maybe something more “significance test-y” is needed/wanted but why not begin by tabulating percent of studies with the characteristic and the co-occurrence of
pairs of characteristics. Gene Maguin From: SPSSX(r) Discussion [mailto:[hidden email]]

How subjective are the judgements in the measurement process?
Are the categories so clear that there is no need to check inter-judge consistency/reliability?

The judgement are dichotomous, either presence/absence. The categories are quite clear to see through the previous studies. Since I'm not doing a questionnaire, just my own study through each of them, I need a test to strengthen my data. I also need to narrowing the no. of elements selected. Thus, I'm thinking of using some test that have cut-off point.

I have tabulated the percent of studies with the characteristic and the co-occurrence of pairs of characteristics. Somehow, I got feedback that the analysis is not strong enough when I present them. I also need to narrow down the elements. Thus, I really need some test that have cut-off points. On Tue, Sep 29, 2015 at 9:23 PM, Maguin, Eugene [via SPSSX Discussion] <[hidden email]> wrote:
