Dear list, I calculated the kappa-accuracy for two differnt classifications. How can I test now the two kappa-value for significance?
If you search the functions in http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/nmz.html or just use RSiteSearch("kappa",restrict="functions") then you will find several ways to compute kappa (assuming that it is the same kappa we're talking about). The first one I looked at (kappa2 in irr) yields a p value. I'm not sure that this is what you are asking, though. Jon
