Abstract

In this paper Jöreskog's model of congeneric tests is used to analyze agreement between raters. Raters are treated as measuring instruments. The model of congeneric tests, of which classical prallelism and tau-equivalence are shown to be special cases, is applied to teachers' ratings of students' responses on open-end questions. The findings suggest that the ratings are tau-equivalent and that the ratings given by the teachers are reliable.
