Unique Rater Design<br />

3) Within Mean Score Variance, steps in Stata<br />

a) calculate mean scores for each individual<br />

*e.g. egen meanid = rmean(score1 score2 score3)<br />

b) calculate deviation <strong>of</strong> rater from individual mean<br />

*e.g. gen wsquarei = (score1-meanid)^2 + (score2-meanid)^2<br />

+ (score3- meanid)^2<br />

c) add up deviations in (b) across all individuals<br />

*e.g. egen wsquare =sum(wsquarei)<br />

d) divide sum <strong>of</strong> squares by degrees <strong>of</strong> freedom<br />

*e.g. display wsquare/I*(m-1) =
