rater vs analyst 16:45 Nov 6, 2011
Hi Emma,
I think "inter-rater" gives many more Google hits than "inter-analyst" because they are actually two different things.
IMO "inter-analyst" variability isn't used so much because it has relatively little importance, what with machines and automation and all that.
On the other hand, precisely because of the 'subjectivity-component', "inter-rater" variability is much more an issue - hence the high number of Google hits.
So if I were you, I would keep on using 'inter-analyst' in cases like this. |
