Psychometric Methodologies and Testing

Rating scales are most frequently used to assess the criterion in studies of validity in personnel selection. However, only a few articles report the interrater reliability for these scales. This paper presents four meta-analyses in which the inter-rater reliability was estimated for Civil Composite Criterion, Military Composite Criterion, Total Composite Criterion, and Single Civil Criterion. Mean reliabilities were .64, .53, .62, and .40, respectively. The implications of these findings for single and meta-analytic studies are discussed.
