Intercoder reliability thresholds

Statistic	Description	Interpretative thresholds
Statistic	Description	Weak	Moderate	Strong
Krippendorff α	agreement across all Study IDs × Codes; provides a single measure of reliability	<0.67	0.67–0.80	≥0.80
Fleiss' K	agreement among coders across the entire set of codes, averaged over all individual per-code κ values	<0.40	0.40–0.75	>0.75
Cohen's K	overall agreement between each pair of coders; used to identify coder-to-coder alignment patterns	<0.59	0.60–0.79	≥0.80

Note(s): Codes that were never assigned to a transcript in each Round were excluded from the Fleiss' K calculation
