Abstract

In this paper we present an analysis of the different methods commonly used to detect and assess interrater bias from two basic perspectives: classical approach based on descriptive-type criteria and loglinear model approach. We show that all these procedures are not satisfactory for the detection and measurement of observer bias in a univoque way due to contradictory results. We propose some new alternatives to develop which allow the correct separation of bias and measurement error.
