一致性检验KAPPA检验详细解读

一致性检验(Kappa检验)诊断试验的一致性检验经常用在下列两种情况中:一种是评价待评价的诊断实验方法与金标准的一致性;另一种是评价两种化验方法对同一个样本(化验对象)的化验结果的一致性或两个医务工作者对同一组病人的诊断结论的一致性或同一医务工作者对同一组病人前后进行两次观察作出的诊断的一致性等等。

Kappa值即内部一致性系数(inter-rater,coefficient of internal consistency),是作为评价判断的一致性程度的重要指标。

取值在0~1之间。

Kappa≥0.75两者一致性较好;0.75>Kappa≥0.4两者一致性一般;Kappa<0.4两者一致性较差。

如果选择Risk复选框,则计算OR值(比数比)和RR值(相对危险度)。

病例对照研究(case control study)是主要用于探索病因的一种流行病学方法。

它是以某人群内一组患有某种病的人(称为病例)和同一人群内未患这种病但在与患病有关的某些已知因素方面和病例组相似的人(称为对照)作为研究对象;调查他们过去对某个或某些可疑病因(即研究因子)的暴露有无和(或)暴露程度(剂量);通过对两组暴露史的比较,推断研究因子作为病因的可能性:如果病例组有暴露史者或严重暴露者的比例在统计学上显著高于对照组,则可认为这种暴露与患病存在统计学联系,有可能是因果联系。

究竟是否是因果联系,须根据一些标准再加以衡量判断。

所谓联系(associatiom)是指两个或更多个变量间的一种依赖关系,可以是因果关系,也可以不是。

例如,对一组肺癌病人(病例组)和一组未患肺癌但有可比性的人(对照组)调查他们的吸烟(暴露)历史(可包括现在吸烟否,过去吸过烟否,开始吸烟年龄,吸烟年数,最近每天吸烟支数;如已戒烟则为戒烟前每日吸烟支数,已戒烟年数,等等)。

Kappa 分析摘要

Kappa 分析摘要

Kappa 分析摘要一般把Kappa值列为非参数统计(检验)方法参数统计:在统计推断中,如总体均数的区间估计、两个或多个均数的比较、相分析和回归系数的假设检验等,大都是假定样本所来自的总体分布为已知的函数形式,但其中有的参数为未知,统计推断的目的就是对这些未知参数进行估计或检验。

这类统计推断方法称为参数统计。

在许多实际问题中,总体分布函数形式往往不知道或者知道的很少,例如只知道总体分布是连续型的或离散型的,这时参数统计方法就不适用,此时需要借助另一种不依赖总体分布的具体形式的统计方法,也就是说不拘于总体分布,称为非参数统计或分布自由统计。

参数统计:样本来自的总体分布型是已知的(如正态分布),在这种假设基础上,对总体参数进行估计或检验。

若总体非正态,则样本例数必须充分多,或经过各种变换(对数、开方、角度……)非参数统计:未知研究总体的分布,或已知总体分布与检所要求的条件不符时,称非参数统计。

优点:①不受总体分布的限定,适用范围广,对数据的要求不像参数检验那样严格,不论研究的是何种类型的变量。

②包括那些难以测量,只能以严重程度优劣等级、次序先后等表示的资料,或有的数据一端或两端是不确定数值,例如“>50mg”,或“0.5mg以下”等。

③易于理解和掌握。

④缺点:①比起参数估计来显得比较粗。

②对适宜参数分析方法的资料若用非参数法处理,常损失部分信息、降低效率。

③虽然许多非参法计算简便,但不少方法计算仍繁杂。

非参数适用于:①检验假设中没有包括总体参数。

②资料不具备参数方法所需条件。

③计算简单实验未结束,急需知道初步结果。

This paper discusses the concept of agreement, highlighting its fundamental difference from correlation. Several examples demonstrate how to compute the kappa coefficient – a popular statistic for measuring agreement – both by hand and by using statistical software packages such as SAS and SPSS. Real study data are used to illustrate how to use and interpret this coefficient in clinical research and practice. The article concludes with a discussion of the limitations of the coefficient. Keywords: interrater agreement; kappa coefficient; weighted kappa; correlation [Shanghai Arch Psychiatry . 2015; 27(1): 62-67. doi: 10.11919/j.issn.1002-0829.215010]1. IntroductionFor most physical illnesses such as high blood pressure and tuberculosis, definitive diagnoses can be made using medical devices such as a sphygmomanometer for blood pressure or an X-ray for tuberculosis. However, there are no error-free gold standard physical indicators of mental disorders, so the diagnosis and severity of mental disorders typically depends on the use of instruments (questionnaires) that attempt to measure latent multi-faceted constructs. For example, psychiatric diagnoses are often based on criteria specified in the Fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV)[1], published by the American Psychiatric Association. But different clinicians may have different opinions about the presence or absence of the specific symptoms required to determine the presence of a diagnosis, so there is typically no perfect agreement between evaluators. In this situation, statistical methods are needed to address variability in clinicians’ ratings.Cohen’s kappa is a widely used index for assessing agreement between raters.[2] Although similar in appearance, agreement is a fundamentally different concept from correlation. To illustrate, consider an instrument with six items and suppose that two raters’ ratings of the six items on a single subject are (3,5), (4,6), (5,7), (6,8), (7,9) and (8,10). Although the scores of the two raters are quite different, the Pearson correlationcoefficient for the two scores is 1, indicating perfect correlation. The paradox occurs because there is a bias in the scoring that results in a consistent difference of 2 points in the scores of the two raters for all 6 items in the instrument. Thus, although perfectly correlated (precision), there is quite poor agreement between the two raters. The kappa index, the most popular measure of raters’ agreement, resolves this problem by assessing both the bias and the precision between raters’ ratings.In addition to its applications to psychiatric diagnosis, the concept of agreement is also widely applied to assess the utility of diagnostic and screening tests. Diagnostic tests provide information about a patient’s condition that clinicians’ often use when making decisions about the management of patients. Early detection of disease or of important changes in the clinical status of patients often leads to less suffering and quicker recovery, but false negative and false positive screening results can result in delayed treatment or in inappropriate treatment. Thus when a new diagnostic or screening test is developed, it is critical to assess its accuracy by comparing test results with those from a gold or reference standard. When assessing such tests, it is incorrect to measure the correlation of the results of the test and the gold standard, the correct procedure is to assess the agreement of the test results with the gold standard.2. ProblemsConsider an instrument with a binary outcome, with ‘1’ representing the presence of depression and ‘0’ representing the absence of depression. Suppose two independent raters apply the instrument to a random sample of n subjects. Let and denote the ratings on the n subjects by the two raters for i =1,2,...,n . We are interested in the degree of agreement between the two raters. Since the ratings are on the same scale of two levels for both raters, the data can be summarized in a 2×2 contingency table.To illustrate, Table 1 shows the results of a study assessing the prevalence of depression among 200 patients treated in a primary care setting using two methods to determine the presence of depression;[3] one based on information provided by the individual (i.e., proband) and the other based on information provided by another informant (e.g., the subject’s family member or close friend) about the proband. Intuitively, we may think that the proportion of cases in which the two ratings are the same (in this example, 34.5% [(19+50)/200]) would be a reasonable measure of agreement. But the problem with this proportion is that it is almost always positive, even when the rating by the two methods is completely random and independent of each other. So the proportion of overall agreement does not indicate whether or not two raters or two methods of rating are in agreement.by chance. This chance agreement must be removed in order to provide a valid measure of agreement. Cohen’s kappa coefficient is used to assess the level ofagreement beyond chance agreement.depressed 5065115total11684200For example, suppose that two raters with no training or experience about depression randomly decide whether or not each of the 200 patients has depression. Assume that one rater makes a positive diagnosis (i.e., considers depression present) 80% of the time and the other gives a positive diagnosis 90% of the time. Based on the assumption that their diagnoses are made independently from each other, Table 2 represents the joint distribution of their ratings. The proportion that the two raters give the same diagnosis is 74% (i.e., 0.72+0.02), suggesting that the two raters are doing a good job of diagnosing the presence of depression. But this level of agreement is purely by chance, it does not reflect the actual degree of agreement between the two raters. This hypothetical example shows that the proportion of cases in which two raters give the sameratings on an instrument is inflated by the agreementnegative 0.180.02 0.20total0.900.101.003. Kappa for 2×2 tablesConsider a hypothetical example of two raters giving ratings for n subjects on a binary scale, with ‘1’ representing a positive result (e.g., the presence of a diagnosis) and ‘0’ representing a negative result (e.g., the absence of a diagnosis). The results could be reported in a 2x2 contingency table as shown in Table 3. By convention, the results of the first rater are traditionally shown in the rows (x values) and the results of the second rater are shown in the columns (y values). Thus, n ij in the table denotes the number of subjects who receive the rating of i from the first rater and the rating j from the second rater. Let Pr(A) denote the probability of event A; then p ij =Pr(x=i,y=j) represent the proportion of all cases that receive the rating of i from the first rater and the rating j from the second rater, p i+=Pr(x=i) represents the marginal distribution of the first rater’s ratings, and p +j =Pr(y=j) represents themarginal distribution of the second rater’s ratings.11101+0 (negative)n 01n 00n 0+totaln +1n +0nIf the two raters give their ratings independently according to their marginal distributions, the probability that a subject is rated 0 (negative) by chance by both raters is the product of the marginal probabilities p 0+ and p +0. Likewise, the probability of a subject being rated 1 (positive) by chance by both raters is the product of the marginal probabilities p 1+ and p +1. The sum of these two probabilities (p 1+*p +1 + p 0+*p +0) is the agreement by chance, that is, the source of inflation discussed earlier.After excluding this source of inflation from the total proportion of cases in which the two raters give identical ratings (p 11 + p 00), we arrive at the agreement corrected for chance agreement, (p 11+p 00 – (p 1+*p +1 + p 0+*p +0)). In 1960 Cohen [1] recommended normalizing this chance-adjusted agreement as the Kappa coefficient (K ):(1)This normalization process produces kappa coefficients that vary between −1 and 1, depending on the degree of agreement or disagreement beyond chance. If the two raters completely agree with each other, then p 11+p 00=1 and K =1. Conversely, if the kappa coefficient is 1, then the two raters agree completely. On the other hand, if the raters rate the subjects in a completely random fashion, then the agreement is completely due to chance, so p 11=p 1+*p +1 and p 00=p 0+*p +0 do (p 11+p 00 – (p 1+*p +1 + p 0+*p +0))=0 and the kappa coefficient is also 0. In general, when rater agreement exceeds chance agreement the kappa coefficient is positive, and when raters disagree more than they agree the kappa coefficient is negative. The magnitude of kappa indicates the degree of agreement or disagreement.The kappa coefficient can be estimated by substituting sample proportions for the probabilities shown in equation (1). When the number of ratings given by each rater (i.e., the sample size) is large, the kappa coefficient approximately follows a normal distribution. This asymptotic distribution can be estimated using delta methods based on the asymptotic distributions of the various sample proportions.[4] Based on the asymptotic distribution, calculations of confidence intervals and hypothesis tests can be performed. For a sample with 100 or more ratings, this generally provides a good approximation. However, it may not work well for small sample sizes, in which case exact methods may be applied to provide more accurate inference.[4]Example 1. Assessing the agreement between the diagnosis of depression based on information provided by the proband compared to the diagnosis based on information provided by other informants (Table 1), the Kappa coefficient is computed as follows:The asymptotic standard error of kappa is estimated as 0.063. This gives a 95% confidence interval of κ, (0.2026, 0.4497). The positive kappa indicates some degree of agreement about the diagnosis of depression between diagnoses based on information provided by the proband versus diagnoses based on information provided by other informants. However, the level of agreement, though statistically significant, is relatively weak.In most applications, there is usually more interest in the magnitude of kappa than in the statistical significance of kappa. When the sample is relatively large (as in this example), a low kappa which represents relatively weak agreement can, nevertheless, be statistically significant (that is, significantly greater than 0). The degree of beyond-chance agreement has been classified in different ways by different authors who arbitrarily assigned each category to specific cutoff levels of Kappa. For example, Landis and Koch [5] proposed that a kappa in the range of 0.21–0.40 be considered ‘fair’ agreement, kappa=0.41–0.60 be considered ‘moderate’ agreement, kappa=0.61–0.80 be considered ‘substantial’ agreement, and kappa >0.81 be considered ‘almost perfect’ agreement.4. Kappa for categorical variables with multiple levels The kappa coefficient for a binary rating scale can be generalized to cases in which there are more than two levels in the rating scale. Suppose there are k nominal categories in the rating scale. For simplicity and without loss of generality, denote the rating levels by 1,2,...,k . The ratings from the two raters can be summarized in a k ×k contingency table, as shown in Table 4. In the table, n ij , p ij , p i+, and p +j have the same interpretations as in the 2x2 contingency table (above) but the range of the scale is extended to i,j =1,…,k. As in the binary example, we first compute the agreement by chance, (the sum of the products of the k marginal probabilities, ∑ p i+*p +i for i =1,…,k ), and subtract this chance agreement from the total observed agreement (the sum of the diagonal probabilities, ∑ p ii for i =1,...,k ) before estimating the normalized agreement beyond chance:(2)11121k 1+2n 21n 22...n 2k n 2+..................k n k1n k2...n kk n k+totaln +1n +2...n +knAs in the case of binary scales, the kappa coefficient varies between −1 and 1, depending on the extent of agreement or disagreement. If the two raters completely agree with each other (∑ p ii =1, for i =1,…,k ), then the kappa coefficient is equal to 1. If the raters rate the subjects at random, then the total agreement is equal chance agreement (∑ p ii =∑ p i+*p +i , for i =1,…,k ) so thekappa coefficient is 0. In general, the kappa coefficient is positive if there is agreement or negative if there is disagreement, with the magnitude of kappa indicating the degree of such agreement or disagreement between the raters. The kappa index in equation (2) is estimated by replacing the probabilities with their corresponding sample proportions. As in the case of binary scales, we can use asymptotic theory and exact methods to assess confidence intervals and make inferences.5. Kappa for ordinal or ranked variablesThe definition of the kappa coefficient in equation (2) assumes that the rating categories are treated as independent categories. If, however, the rated categories are ordered or ranked (for example, a Likert scale with categories such as ‘strongly disagree’, ‘disagree’, ‘neutral’, ‘agree’, and ‘strongly agree’), then a weighted kappa coefficient is computed that takes into consideration the different levels of disagreement between categories. For example, if one rater ‘strongly disagrees’ and another ‘strongly agrees’ this must be considered a greater level of disagreement than when one rater ‘agrees’ and another ‘strongly agrees’.The first step in computing a weighted kappa is to assign weights representing the different levels of agreement for each cell in the KxK contingency table. The weights in the diagonal cells are all 1 (i.e., w ii =1, for all i ), and the weights in the off-diagonal cells range from 0 to <1 (i.e., 0<w ij <1, for all i ≠j ). These weights are then added to equation (2) to generate a weighted kappa that accounts for varying degrees of agreement or disagreement between the ranked categories:The weighted kappa is computed by replacing the probabilities with their respective sample proportions, p ij , p i+, and p +i . If w ij =0 for all i ≠j , the weighted kappa coefficient K w reduces to the standard kappa in equation (2). Note that for binary rating scales, there is no weighted version of kappa, since κ remains the same regardless of the weights used. Again, we can use asymptotic theory and exact methods to estimate confidence intervals and make inferences.In theory, any weights satisfying the two defining conditions (i.e., weights in diagonal cells=1 and weights in off-diagonal cells >0 and <1) may be used. In practice, however, additional constraints are often imposed to make the weights more interpretable and meaningful. For example, since the degree of disagreement (agreement) is often a function of the difference between the i th and j th rating categories, weights are typically set to reflect adjacency between rating categories, such as by w ij =f (i-j ), where f is some decreasing function satisfying three conditions: (a) 0<f (x )<1; (b) f (x )=f (-x ); and (c) f (0)=1. Based on these conditions, larger weights (i.e., closer to 1) are used forweights of pairs of categories that are closer to each other and smaller weights (i.e., closer to 0) are used for weights of pairs of categories that are more distant from each other.Two such weighting systems based on column scores are commonly employed. Suppose the column scores are ordered, say C 1≤C 2…≤C r and assigned values of 0,1,…r. Then, the Cicchetti–Allison weight and the Fleiss–Cohen weight in each cell of the KxK contingency table are computed as follows:Cicchetti-Allison weights: Fleiss-Cohen weights:Example 2. If depression is categorized into three ranked levels as shown in Table 5, the agreement of the classification based on information provided by the probands with the classification based on information provided by other informants can be estimated using the unweighted kappa coefficient as follows:Applying the Cicchetti-Allison weights (shown in Table 5) to the unweighted formula generates a weighed kappa:Applying the Fleiss-Cohen weights (shown in Table 5) involves replacing the 0.5 weight in the above equation with 0.75 and results in a K w of 0.4482. Thus the weighted kappa coefficients have larger absolute values than the unweighted kappa coefficients. The overall result indicates only fair to moderate agreement between the two methods of classifying the level of depression. As seen in Table 5, the low agreement is partly due to the fact that a large number of subjects classified as minor depression based on information from the proband were not identified using information from other informants.6. Statistical SoftwareSeveral statistical software packages including SAS, SPSS, and STATA can compute kappa coefficients. But agreement data conceptually result in square tables with entries in all cells, so most software packages will not compute kappa if the agreement table is non-square, which can occur if one or both raters do not use all the rating categories when rating subjects because ofbiases or small samples.In some special circumstances the software pack-ages will compute incorrect kappa coefficients if a square agreement table is generated despite the failure of both raters to use all rating categories. For example, suppose a scale for rater agreement has three categories, A, B, and C. If one rater only uses categories B and C, and the other only uses categories A and B, this could result in a square agreement table such as that shown in Table 6. This is a square table, but the rating categories in the rows are completely different from those represented by the column. Clearly, kappa values generated using this table would not provide the desired assessment of rater agreement. To deal with this problem the analyst must add zero counts for the rating categories not endorsed by the raters to create a square table with the right rating categories, as shown in Table 7.6.1 SASI n SAS, one may use PROC FREQ and specify thecorresponding two-way table with the “AGREE” option.B 51419total211637B 051419C 0000total211637Here are the sample codes for Example 2 using PROC FREQ:PROC FREQ DATA = (the data set for the depression diagnosis study);TABLE (variable on result using proband) * (variable on result using other informants)/ AGREE;RUN;PROC FREQ uses Cicchetti-Allison weights by default. One can specify (WT=FC) with the AGREE option to request weighted kappa coefficients based on Fleiss-Cohen weights. It is important to check the order of the levels and weights used in computing weighted kappa. SAS calculates weights for weighted kappa based on unformatted values; if the variable of interest is not coded this way, one can either recode the variable or use a format statement and sp ecify the “ORDER = FORMATTED” option. Also note that data for contingency tables are often recorded as aggregated data. For example, 10 subjects with the rating ‘A’ from the first rater and the rating ‘B’ from the second rater may be combined into one observation with a frequency variable of value 10. In such cases a weight statement “weight (the frequency variable);” may be applied to specify the frequency variable.6.2 SPSSIn SPSS, kappa coefficients can be only be computed when there are only two levels in the rating scale so it is not possible to compute weighted kappa coefficients. For a two-level rating scale such as that described in Example 1, one may use the following syntax to compute the kappa coefficient:CROSSTABS/TABLES=(variable on result using proband) BY (variable on result using other informants)/STATISTICS=KAPPA.An alternatively easier approach is to select appropriate options in the SPSS menu:1. Click on Analyze, then Descriptive Statistics, then Crosstabs.2. Choose the variables for the row and column variables in the pop-up window for the crosstab.3. Click on Statistics and select the kappa checkbox.4. Click Continue or OK to generate the output for the kappa coefficient.7. DiscussionIn this paper we introduced the use of Cohen’s kappa coefficient to assess between-rater agreement, which has the desirable property of correcting for chance agreement. We focused on cross-sectional studies for two raters, but extensions to longitudinal studies with missing values and to studies that use more than two raters are also available.[6] Cohen’s kappa generally works well, but in some specific situations it may not accurately reflect the true level of agreement between raters.[7]. For example, when both raters report a very high prevalence of the condition of interest (as in the hypothetical example shown in Table 2), some of the overlap in their diagnoses may reflect their common knowledge about the disease in the population being rated. This should be considered ‘true’ agreement, but it is attributed to chance agreement (i.e., kappa=0). Despite such limitations, the kappa coefficient is an informative measure of agreement in most circumstances that is widely used in clinical research.Cohen’s kappa can only be applied to categorical ratings. When ratings are on a continuous scale, Lin’s concordance correlation coefficient[8] is an appropriate measure of agreement between two raters,[8] and the intraclass correlation coefficients[9] is an appropriate measure of agreement between multiple raters.Conflict of interestThe authors declare no conflict of interest.FundingNone.概述:在精神卫生和社会心理学研究中,常常需要报告研究使用某一评估方法的评估者间的一致性。

在医学领域,准确的诊断结果对于患者的治疗和预后至关重要。

因此,评估医学诊断试验的一致性是非常重要的。

Kappa检验可以帮助医生和研究人员评估医学诊断试验的一致性,从而提高诊断的准确性和可靠性。

Kappa检验是通过比较观察者之间的一致性来评估医学诊断试验的结果。

在医学研究中,通常会有多个观察者对同一组样本进行评估,他们可能会有不同的观点和判断。

Kappa检验可以帮助我们确定这些观察者之间的一致性程度,从而评估医学诊断试验的可靠性。

Kappa检验的结果通常是一个介于-1和1之间的数值。

当Kappa值接近1时,表示观察者之间的一致性非常高,说明医学诊断试验的结果非常可靠。

而当Kappa 值接近-1时,表示观察者之间的一致性非常低,说明医学诊断试验的结果不可靠。

当Kappa值接近0时,表示观察者之间的一致性与随机一致性相当,说明医学诊断试验的结果具有一定的随机性。

Kappa检验的结果可以帮助医生和研究人员判断医学诊断试验的可靠性,从而决定是否需要进一步改进诊断方法或者加强观察者的培训。

通过Kappa检验,我们可以及时发现医学诊断试验中存在的问题,并采取相应的措施,从而提高诊断的准确性和可靠性。

除了用于评估医学诊断试验的一致性外,Kappa检验还可以用于评估其他类型的观察者之间的一致性,比如评估医学影像的解读、评估疾病的诊断和分型等。

This paper discusses the concept of agreement, highlighting its fundamental difference from correlation. Several examples demonstrate how to compute the kappa coefficient – a popular statistic for measuring agreement – both by hand and by using statistical software packages such as SAS and SPSS. Real study data are used to illustrate how to use and interpret this coefficient in clinical research and practice. Thearticle concludes with a discussion of the limitations of the coefficient. Keywords: interrater agreement; kappa coefficient; weighted kappa; correlation [Shanghai Arch Psychiatry . 2015; 27(1): 62-67. doi: 10.11919/j.issn.1002-0829.215010]1. IntroductionFor most physical illnesses such as high blood pressure and tuberculosis, definitive diagnoses can be made using medical devices such as a sphygmomanometer for blood pressure or an X-ray for tuberculosis. However, there are no error-free gold standard physical indicators of mental disorders, so the diagnosis and severity of mental disorders typically depends on the use of instruments (questionnaires) that attempt to measure latent multi-faceted constructs. For example, psychiatric diagnoses are often based on criteria specified in the Fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV)[1], published by the American Psychiatric Association. But different clinicians may have different opinions about the presence or absence of the specific symptoms required to determine the presence of a diagnosis, so there is typically no perfect agreement between evaluators. In this situation, statistical methods are needed to address variability in clinicians’ ratings.Cohen’s kappa is a widely used index for assessing agreement between raters.[2] Although similar in appearance, agreement is a fundamentally different concept from correlation. To illustrate, consider an instrument with six items and suppose that two raters’ ratings of the six items on a single subject are (3,5), (4,6), (5,7), (6,8), (7,9) and (8,10). Although the scores of the two raters are quite different, the Pearson correlationcoefficient for the two scores is 1, indicating perfectcorrelation. The paradox occurs because there is a bias in the scoring that results in a consistent difference of 2 points in the scores of the two raters for all 6 items in the instrument. Thus, although perfectly correlated (precision), there is quite poor agreement between the two raters. The kappa index, the most popular measure of rate rs’ agreement, resolves this problem by assessing both the bias and the precision between raters’ ratings.In addition to its applications to psychiatric diagnosis, the concept of agreement is also widely applied to assess the utility of diagnostic and screening tests. Diagnostic tests provide information about a patient’s condition that clinicians’ often use when making decisions about the management of patients. Early detection of disease or of important changes in the clinical status of patients often leads to less suffering and quicker recovery, but false negative and false positive screening results can result in delayed treatment or in inappropriate treatment. Thus when a new diagnostic or screening test is developed, it is critical to assess its accuracy by comparing test results with those from a gold or reference standard. When assessing such tests, it is incorrect to measure the correlation of the results of the test and the gold standard, the correct procedure is to assess the agreement of the test results with the gold standard.2. ProblemsConsider an instrument with a binary outcome, with ‘1’ representing the presence of depression and ‘0’ representing the absence of depression. Suppose two independent raters apply the instrument to a random sample of n subjects. Let and denote the ratings on the n subjects by the two raters for i =1,2,...,n . We are interested in the degree of agreement between the two raters. Since the ratings are on the same scale of two levels for both raters, the data can be summarized in a 2×2 contingency table.To illustrate, Table 1 shows the results of a study assessing the prevalence of depression among 200 patients treated in a primary care setting using two methods to determine the presence of depression;[3] one based on information provided by the individual (i.e., proband) and the other based on information provided by another informant (e.g., the subject’s family member or close friend) about the proband. Intuitively, we may think that the proportion of cases in which the two ratings are the same (in this example, 34.5% [(19+50)/200]) would be a reasonable measure of agreement. But the problem with this proportion is that it is almost always positive, even when the rating by the two methods is completely random and independent of each other. So the proportion of overall agreement does not indicate whether or not two raters or two methods of rating are in agreement.by chance. This chance agreement must be removed in order to provide a valid measure of agreement. Coh en’s kappa coefficient is used to assess the level ofagreement beyond chance agreement.depressed 5065115total11684200For example, suppose that two raters with no training or experience about depression randomly decide whether or not each of the 200 patients has depression. Assume that one rater makes a positive diagnosis (i.e., considers depression present) 80% of the time and the other gives a positive diagnosis 90% of the time. Based on the assumption that their diagnoses are made independently from each other, Table 2 represents the joint distribution of their ratings. The proportion that the two raters give the same diagnosis is 74% (i.e., 0.72+0.02), suggesting that the two raters are doing a good job of diagnosing the presence of depression. But this level of agreement is purely by chance, it does not reflect the actual degree of agreement between the two raters. This hypothetical example shows that the proportion of cases in which two raters give the sameratings on an instrument is inflated by the agreementnegative 0.180.02 0.20total0.900.101.003. Kappa for 2×2 tablesConsider a hypothetical example of two raters giving ratings for n subjects on a binary scale, with ‘1’ representing a positive result (e.g., the presence of a diagnosis) a nd ‘0’ representing a negative result (e.g., the absence of a diagnosis). The results could be reported in a 2x2 contingency table as shown in Table 3. By convention, the results of the first rater are traditionally shown in the rows (x values) and the results of the second rater are shown in the columns (y values). Thus, n ij in the table denotes the number of subjects who receive the rating of i from the first rater and the rating j from the second rater. Let Pr(A) denote the probability of event A; then p ij =Pr(x=i,y=j) represent the proportion of all cases that receive the rating of i from the first rater and the rating j from the second rater, p i+=Pr(x=i) represents the marginal distribution of the first rater’s ratings, and p +j =Pr(y=j) represents themarginal distribution of the second rater’s ratings.11101+0 (negative)n 01n 00n 0+totaln +1n +0nIf the two raters give their ratings independently according to their marginal distributions, the probability that a subject is rated 0 (negative) by chance by both raters is the product of the marginal probabilities p 0+ and p +0. Likewise, the probability of a subject being rated 1 (positive) by chance by both raters is theproduct of the marginal probabilities p 1+ and p +1. The sum of these two probabilities (p 1+*p +1 + p 0+*p +0) is the agreement by chance, that is, the source of inflation discussed earlier.After excluding this source of inflation from the total proportion of cases in which the two raters give identical ratings (p 11 + p 00), we arrive at the agreement corrected for chance agreement, (p 11+p 00 –(p 1+*p +1 + p 0+*p +0)). In 1960 Cohen [1] recommended normalizing this chance-adjusted agreement as the Kappa coefficient (K ):(1)This normalization process produces kappa coefficients that vary between ?1 and 1, depending on the degree of agreement or disagreement beyond chance. If the two raters completely agree with each other, then p 11+p 00=1 and K =1. Conversely, if the kappa coefficient is 1, then the two raters agree completely. On the other hand, if the raters rate the subjects in a completely random fashion, then the agreement is completely due to chance, so p 11=p 1+*p +1 and p 00=p 0+*p +0 do (p 11+p 00 – (p 1+*p +1 + p 0+*p +0))=0 and the kappa coefficient is also 0. In general, when rater agreement exceeds chance agreement the kappa coefficient is positive, and when raters disagree more than they agree the kappa coefficient is negative. The magnitude of kappa indicates the degree of agreement or disagreement.The kappa coefficient can be estimated by substituting sample proportions for the probabilities shown in equation (1). When the number of ratings given by each rater (i.e., the samplesize) is large, the kappa coefficient approximately follows a normal distribution. This asymptotic distribution can be estimated using delta methods based on the asymptotic distributions of the various sample proportions.[4] Based on the asymptotic distribution, calculations of confidence intervals and hypothesis tests can be performed. For a sample with 100 or more ratings, this generally provides a good approximation. However, it may not work well for small sample sizes, in which case exact methods may be applied to provide more accurate inference.[4]Example 1. Assessing the agreement between the diagnosis of depression based on information provided by the proband compared to the diagnosis based on information provided by other informants (Table 1), the Kappa coefficient is computed as follows:The asymptotic standard error of kappa is estimated as 0.063. This gives a 95% confidence interval of κ, (0.2026, 0.4497). The positive kappa indicates some degree of agreement about the diagnosis of depression between diagnoses based on information provided by the proband versus diagnoses based on information provided by other informants. However, the level of agreement, though statistically significant, is relatively weak.In most applications, there is usually more interest in the magnitude of kappa than in the statistical significance of kappa. When the sample is relatively large (as in this example), a low kappa which represents relatively weak agreement can, nevertheless, be statistically significant (that is, significantly greater than 0). The degree of beyond-chance agreement has been classified in different ways by different authors who arbitrarily assigned each category to specific cutoff levels of Kappa. For example, Landis and Koch [5] proposed that a kappa in the range of 0.21–0.40 be considered ‘fair’ agreement, kappa=0.41–0.60 be c onsidered ‘moderate’ agreement, kappa=0.61–0.80 be considered ‘substantial’ agreement, and kappa >0.81 be considered ‘almost perfect’ agreement.4. Kappa for categorical variables with multiple levels The kappa coefficient for a binary rating scale can be generalized to cases in which there are more than two levels in the rating scale. Suppose there are k nominal categories in the rating scale. For simplicity and without loss of generality, denote the rating levels by 1,2,...,k . The ratings from the two raters can be summarized in a k ×k contingency table, as shown in Table 4. In the table, n ij , p ij , p i+, and p +j have the same interpretations as in the 2x2 contingency table (above) but the range of the scale is extended to i,j =1,…,k. As in the binary example, we first compute the agreement by chance, (the sum of the products of the k marginal probabilities, ∑ p i+*p +i for i =1,…,k ), and subtract this chance agreement from the total observed agreement (the sum of the diagonal probabilities, ∑ p ii fo r i =1,...,k ) before estimating the normalized agreement beyond chance:(2)11121k 1+2n 21n 22...n 2k n 2+..................k n k1n k2...n kk nk+totaln +1n +2...n +knAs in the case of binary scales, the kappa coefficient varies between ?1 and 1, depending on the extent of agreement or disagreement. If the two raters completely agree with each other (∑ p ii =1, for i =1,…,k ), then the kappa coefficient is equal to 1. If the raters rate the subjects at random, then the total agreement is equal chance agreement (∑ p ii =∑ p i+*p +i , for i =1,…,k ) so thekappa coefficient is 0. In general, the kappa coefficient is positive if there is agreement or negative if there is disagreement, with the magnitude of kappa indicating the degree of such agreement or disagreement between the raters. The kappa index in equation (2) is estimated by replacing the probabilities with their corresponding sample proportions. As in the case of binary scales, we can use asymptotic theory and exact methods to assess confidence intervals and make inferences.5. Kappa for ordinal or ranked variablesThe definition of the kappa coefficient in equation (2) assumes that the rating categories are treated as independent categories. If, however, the rated categories are ordered or ranked (for example, a Likert scale with categories such as ‘strongly disagree’, ‘disagree’, ‘neutral’, ‘agree’, and ‘strongly agree’), then a weighted kappa coefficient is computed that takes into consideration the different levels of disagreement between categories. For example, if one rater‘strongly disagrees’ and another ‘strongly agrees’ this must be considered a greater level of disagreement than when one rater ‘agrees’ and another ‘strongly agrees’.The first step in computing a weighted kappa is to assign weights representing the different levels of agreement for each cell in the KxK contingency table. The weights in the diagonal cells are all 1 (i.e., w ii =1, for all i ), and the weights in the off-diagonal cells range from 0 to <1 (i.e., 0<="" degrees="" disagreement="" equation="" for="" generate="" i="" ij="" kappa="" of="" or="" p="" ranked="" that="" the="" then="" these="" to="" varying="" weighted="" weights="" ≠j=""> The weighted kappa is computed by replacing the probabilities with their respective sample proportions, p ij , p i+, and p +i . If w ij =0 for all i ≠j , the weighted kappa coefficient K w reduces to the standard kappa in equation (2). Note that for binary rating scales, there is no weighted version of kappa, since κ remains the same regardless of the weights used. Again, we can use asymptotic theory and exact methods to estimate confidence intervals and make inferences.In theory, any weights satisfying the two defining conditions (i.e., weights in diagonal cells=1 and weights in off-diagonal cells >0 and <1) may be used. In practice, however, additional constraints are often imposed to make the weights more interpretable and meaningful. For example, since the degree of disagreement (agreement) is often a function of the difference between the i th and j th rating categories, weights are typically set to reflect adjacency between rating categories, such as by w ij =f (i-j ), where f is some decreasing function satisfying three conditions: (a) 0<="" larger="" on="" p="" these="" to="" used="" weights="">weights of pairs of categories that are closer to each other and smaller weights (i.e., closer to 0) are used for weights of pairs of categories that are more distant from each other.Two such weighting systems based on column scores are commonly employed. Suppose the column scores are ordered, say C 1≤C 2…≤C r and assigned values of 0,1,…r. Then, the Cicchetti–Allison weight and the Fleiss–Cohen weight in each cell of the KxK contingency table are computed as follows: Cicchetti-Allison weights: Fleiss-Cohen weights:Example 2. If depression is categorized into three ranked levels as shown in Table 5, the agreement of the classification based on information provided by the probands with the classification based on information provided by other informants can be estimated using the unweighted kappa coefficient as follows:Applying the Cicchetti-Allison weights (shown in Table 5) to the unweighted formula generates a weighed kappa: Applying the Fleiss-Cohen weights (shown in Table 5) involves replacing the 0.5 weight in the above equation with 0.75 and results in a K w of 0.4482. Thus the weighted kappa coefficients have larger absolute values than the unweighted kappa coefficients. The overall result indicates only fair to moderate agreement between the two methods of classifying the level of depression. As seen in Table 5, the low agreement is partly due to the fact that a large number of subjects classified as minor depression based on information from the proband were not identified using information from other informants.6. Statistical SoftwareSeveral statistical software packages including SAS, SPSS, and STATA can compute kappa coefficients. But agreement dataconceptually result in square tables with entries in all cells, so most software packages will not compute kappa if the agreement table is non-square, which can occur if one or both raters do not use all the rating categories when rating subjects because ofbiases or small samples.In some special circumstances the software pack-ages will compute incorrect kappa coefficients if a square agreement table is generated despite the failure of both raters to use all rating categories. For example, suppose a scale for rater agreement has three categories, A, B, and C. If one rater only uses categories B and C, and the other only uses categories A and B, this could result in a square agreement table such as that shown in Table 6. This is a square table, but the rating categories in the rows are completely different from those represented by the column. Clearly, kappa values generated using this table would not provide the desired assessment of rater agreement. To deal with this problem the analyst must add zero counts for the rating categories not endorsed by the raters to create a square tablewith the right rating categories, as shown in Table 7.6.1 SASI n SAS, one may use PROC FREQ and specify thecorresponding two-way table with the “AGREE” option.B 51419total211637B 051419C 0000total211637Here are the sample codes for Example 2 using PROC FREQ:PROC FREQ DATA = (the data set for the depression diagnosis study);TABLE (variable on result using proband) * (variable on result using other informants)/ AGREE;RUN;PROC FREQ uses Cicchetti-Allison weights by default. One can specify (WT=FC) with the AGREE option to request weighted kappa coefficients based on Fleiss-Cohen weights. It is important to check the order of the levels and weights used in computing weighted kappa. SAS calculates weights for weighted kappa based on unformatted values; if the variable of interest is not coded this way, one can either recode the variable or use a format statement and sp ecify the “ORDER = FORMATTED” option. Also note that data for contingency tables are often recorded as aggreg ated data. For example, 10 subjects with the rating ‘A’ from the first rater and the rating ‘B’ from the second rater may be combined into one observation with a frequency variable of value 10. In such cases a weight statement “weight (the frequency variab le);” may be applied to specify the frequency variable.6.2 SPSSIn SPSS, kappa coefficients can be only be computed when there are only two levels in the rating scale so it is not possible to compute weighted kappa coefficients. For a two-level rating scale such as that described in Example 1, one may use the following syntax to compute the kappa coefficient:CROSSTABS/TABLES=(variable on result using proband) BY (variable on result using other informants)/STATISTICS=KAPPA.An alternatively easier approach is to select appropriate options in the SPSS menu:1. Click on Analyze, then Descriptive Statistics, then Crosstabs.2. Choose the variables for the row and column variables in the pop-up window for the crosstab.3. Click on Statistics and select the kappa checkbox.4. Click Continue or OK to generate the output for the kappa coefficient.7. DiscussionIn this paper we introduced the use of Cohen’s kappa coefficient to assess between-rater agreement, which has the desirable property of correcting for chance agreement. We focused on cross-sectional studies for two raters, but extensions to longitudinal studies with missing values and to studies that use more than two raters are also available.[6] Cohen’s kappa generally works well, but in some specific situations it may not accurately reflect the true level of agreement between raters.[7]. For example, when both raters report a very high prevalence of the condition of interest (as in the hypothetical example shown in Table 2), some of the overlap in their diagnoses may reflect their common knowledge about the disease in the population being rated. This should be considered ‘true’ agreement, but it is attributed to chance agreement (i.e., kappa=0). Despite such limitations, the kappa coefficient is an informative measure of agreement in most circumstances that is widely used in clinical research.Cohen’s kappa can only be applied to categorical ratings. When ratings are on a continuous scale, Lin’s concordance correlation coefficient[8] is an appropriate measure of agreement between two raters,[8] and the intraclass correlation coefficients[9] is an appropriate measure of agreement between multiple raters.Conflict of interestThe authors declare no conflict of interest.FundingNone.概述:在精神卫生和社会心理学研究中,常常需要报告研究使用某一评估方法的评估者间的一致性。

kappa统计值与分类精度的对应关系(举例说明)

遥感图像分类的精度评价精度评价是指比较实地数据与分类结果,以确定分类过程的准确程度。

分类结果精度评价是进行土地覆被/利用遥感监测中重要的一步,也是分类结果是否可信的一种度量。

最常用的精度评价方法是误差矩阵或混淆矩阵(Error Matrix )方法(Congalton ,1991;Richards ,1996;Stehman ,1997),从误差矩阵可以计算出各种精度统计值,如总体正确率、使用者正确率、生产者正确率(Story 等,1986),Kappa 系数等。

误差矩阵是一个n ×n 矩阵(n 为分类数),用来简单比较参照点和分类点。

一般矩阵的行代表分类点,列代表参照点,对角线部分指某类型与验证类型完全一致的样点个数,对角线为经验证后正确的样点个数(Stehman ,1997)。

对分类图像的每一个像素进行检测是不现实的,需要选择一组参照像素,参照像素必须随机选择。

Kappa 分析是评价分类精度的多元统计方法,对Kappa 的估计称为KHAT 统计,Kappa系数代表被评价分类比完全随机分类产生错误减少的比例,计算公式如下:2N.(.)K =(.)rii i i ii i x x x Nx x ++∧++--∑∑∑式中 K ∧ 是Kappa 系数,r 是误差矩阵的行数,x ii 是i 行i 列(主对角线)上的值,x i +和x +i 分别是第i 行的和与第i 列的和,N 是样点总数。

科恩卡帕系数

科恩卡帕系数

科恩卡帕系数
科恩卡帕系数是一种用于测量两个分类者一致性的统计方法。

该系数
可用于评估医生、研究员、教育者、调查员等分类者在对同一事物进
行分类时的一致性。

科恩卡帕系数在研究中具有广泛的应用,例如在
医疗诊断、心理测量、教育评估和市场调研等领域得到了广泛的应用。

科恩卡帕系数可用以下公式计算:
$$ \kappa =\frac{P(A)-P(E)}{1-P(E)} $$
其中,$P(A)$ 表示分类者之间的实际协议率,$P(E)$ 是预期协议率。

预期协议率的计算方式取决于所使用的测量方法。

科恩卡帕系数的取
值范围为 -1 到 1,其解释如下:
- $\kappa=1$:完全一致,分类者完全一致。

- $\kappa=0$:随机一致,分类者与随机选择的一致程度相同。

- $\kappa=-1$:完全不一致,分类者完全不一致。

科恩卡帕系数的优点在于可以对两个分类者的一致性进行评估,不考
虑分类者是否正确。

因此,该系数可以帮助评估分类者的一致性程度,而不仅仅是准确性。

此外,该系数还可以用于比较两种不同的分类方
法。

然而,科恩卡帕系数也有其局限性。

例如,该系数可能过于敏感,因为它代表实际和理论的差异。

此外,在样本容量较小或分类变量具有很少种类的情况下,科恩卡帕系数也可能不够稳定和精确。

总之,科恩卡帕系数是一种用于评估分类者一致性的重要方法。

该系数可以帮助评估分类者的一致性程度,而不考虑其准确性。

然而,使用科恩卡帕系数也需要注意其局限性。

对于不确定的情况,需要使用其他方法来评估分类者的一致性。

Kappa value range from 0-1,from no agreement to absolute agreement.
It is not unusual for a high r value to indicate a clear association between groups of measurements when the kappa value for the same data is low, indicating little agreement among the individual measurements (Altman 1994 Jerosch-Herold 2005) and therefore limited ability of one test to predict the results of the others.
话说能不能举个例子,就是很相关,但是kappa值,就是不一致性低的内容。
话说最近在看一本相关统计学方面的书,这个书上的有个内容部太理解,现摘录如下:
其实核心就是理解统计学相关性的kappa量。
丁香园上搜索到这个信息:Kappa 值越大,表明一致性越好。一般来说,若Kappa 值≥0.75 , 说明一致性较好;若Kappa 值<0.40, 说明一致程度不够理想。否则一致程度中等。
该文段原文是这样的:to measure the actual agreement between two sets of observations, one must calculate the kappa value, a chance-corrected measured of proportional agreement(Altman,1994), The kappa value is often weighted to take into reement between measurements, Alternatively, an intrerclass correlation coefficient (ICC) may be used.
