You need to let us see the instrument used.  Without seeing your data or
your *.sav file:

Looks like you need to derive a mean from a varying number of subordinates,
but you will encounter a problem of missing values which could returen a
null value for whichever statistic you are trying to compute.  You don't say
how many points are on the rating scales: I assume 5.  Assuming
self-assessmen is self1 and supervisor super1 and that subordinate
assessments are named sub1 to sub20 you need something like this (untested):

Count subsum = sub1 to sub20 (1 thru 5).
Formats subsum (f2.0).
Compute submean = sum.5 (sub1 to sub20)/subsum.
List self1 super1 submean /cases 40.

Then eyeball the list.

Subject: InterGroup Agreement?

I am trying to determine which agreement measures to use with a data set
that I've been given.

Forty managers completed this leadership assessment tool (self rating).
Next,  six scores are derived - five sub-scores and an overall leadership
score (average of the five subscores).  The rating scale for each item is
ordinal.

Each manager asks two types of raters to assess their level of leadership
using the same leadership assessment tool.  The same scores are computed for
both observer types.

The first group is the manager's supervisor, in which n=1 (always).  The
second group are the manager's subordinates, and the number can vary,
anywhere from n=5 to an n=20.

Therefore, there are three types of ratings for each manager:  self,
supervisor (n=1), subordinate (number varies).  This is a 360 degree
assessment approach to determining the degree to which the manager exhibits
aspects of transformational leadership.

Basically, of the 40 managers--each with the three types of ratings, the
person that I am working with wants to select three managers for which there
is the highest level of agreement across the self (so one rating),
supervisor (n=1), and the subordinates (number of raters varies per
manager).

I've looked through the archives....what is the best way / index for
identifying those with the highest levels of transformational leadership?

I've looked at a variety of indices, but it seems my issue is that I have
only the one self rating and the one supervisor rating and the number of
subordinate raters varies.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Christina
