Info

ECERS is A Reliable Instrument • A ruler is an accurate, reliable measurement tool. No matter what type of ruler you use, the measurements will always be the same. • Scales are reliable, but must be used reliably by trained scorers or assessors.
What is Inter-Rater Reliability? • Refers to the consistency of the assessors in scoring the items of the scales. • A high level of inter-rater reliability means that if 2 assessors observe the same program, the likelihood of having the same score is high. • Assessors who have been trained to a high level of inter-rater reliability are able to use the scales accurately and consistently, ensuring that no matter where the provider is located and which assessor is doing the observation, the results are consistent.
