Overview<br />

• Unique Design: Each <strong>of</strong> the I subjects rated by a unique<br />

set <strong>of</strong> m raters (m>1), such that the total number <strong>of</strong><br />

raters, R, is m*I<br />

• Fixed Design: Each subject is rated by each <strong>of</strong> the same<br />

m raters, such that the total number <strong>of</strong> raters, R is m.<br />

These raters are the only raters <strong>of</strong> interest.<br />

• Random Design: m raters are drawn from a larger pool<br />

<strong>of</strong> raters. Each <strong>of</strong> the I subjects is rated by each <strong>of</strong> the m<br />

raters. Again, the total number <strong>of</strong> raters, R is m.<br />

NOTE: raters might be people or questionnaire items
