Steps in Stata<br />

1. Calculate overall mean<br />

Fixed Rater Design<br />

2. Calculate mean for each rater<br />

*e.g. egen r1mean=mean(rater1)<br />

egen r2mean=mean(rater2)…<br />

3. Calculate deviation <strong>of</strong> rater mean from<br />

overall mean<br />

*e.g. display N*(r1mean-grandmean)^2 +<br />

N*(r2mean-grandmean)^2…<br />

4. Calculate error square variance<br />

*error square variance = (within square variance – rater<br />

square variance)<br />

*divide by difference in degrees <strong>of</strong> freedom to get<br />

error variance
