MVPstats — MSA Nominal Level Output

The output for a Measurement Systems Analysis for Nominal level data is shown below.

Several unique diagnostic assessments are performed. Pair-wise comparisons are made for each set of measures for each appraiser. Pair-wise comparisons are also made between each appraiser.

Output Statistics

nSample Size
AgreeThe number of items in which agreement occurred
DisagreeThe number of items in which disagreement occurred
P(Agree)The proportion of items in which agreement occurred
P(Disagree) The proportion of items in which disagreement occurred
P(Chance)The proportion of agreement expected due to chance
Kmaxkappa Max
kappaThe kappa Statistic
CI(low)The lower bound of the confidence interval for kappa
CI(high)The upper bound of the confidence interval for kappa
p(kappa)The p-value or statistical significance of kappa
p(Sym)The p-value of the test for symmetry
