Abstract
Interaction analysts use a variety of nominal, ordinal, and interval level tests to assess coding reliability. This paper evaluates approaches to measuring reliability in interaction analysis by: (1) presenting criteria for a sound reliability estimate, (2) evaluating currently used tests against these criteria, and (3) discussing application of appropriate tests to interaction data.Keywords
