To assess cross-observer agreement on personality profiles, an Index of Profile Agreement and an associated coefficient, rpa, are proposed which take into account both the difference between the ratings and the extremeness of their mean. Using data from the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI-R), this coefficient is shown to be superior to Cattell's (1949) rp in identifying matched versus mismatched pairs of peer ratings/self-reports (N = 250) and spouse ratings/self-reports (N = 68). Suggestions are made for the interpretation and use of the two measures of profile agreement for group comparisons and for the interpretation of individual cases. Limitations of the coefficients are also discussed.
为评估观察者间在人格剖面图上的一致性,本文提出了剖面图一致性指数及相关系数rpa,该指数和系数同时考虑了评分之间的差异及其均值的极端程度。利用来自《修订版NEO人格量表》(NEO-PI-R)的数据,结果表明,在识别同伴评分/自我报告(N = 250)和配偶评分/自我报告(N = 68)的匹配与不匹配对时,该系数优于卡特尔(1949年)的rp。文中针对这两种剖面图一致性测量方法在组间比较中的解释和使用以及个别案例的解释提出了建议。同时也讨论了这些系数的局限性。
