However, scoring several items requires subjective judgement. Accordingly, interrater reliability was investigated by having two independent examiners score the written responses of 299 first-year medical students at two Australian universities. The examiners produced very similar distributions of total scores with means of 20.36 and 19.36 and achieved a high agreement in the categorisation of students with English problems. The Spearman rank-order correlation of 0.83 was high and statistically significant from zero.enHumansLanguage Development DisordersObserver VariationMass ScreeningLanguage TestsEmigration and ImmigrationReference ValuesStudents, MedicalAdolescentAdultAsia, SoutheasternAustraliaFemaleMaleJournal article0030005888001995112810.2466/pr0.1995.76.3.1027A1995RH177000632-s2.0-002931718469894Chur-Hansen, A.
