Table 2.

Interrater agreement between the two speech-language pathologist raters for the speech labels that were used to grade the level of speech and voice impairment.

Speech label 1-pt agreement (%) ICC (95% CI) Interpretation
Severity 98.4 0.859 [0.769, 0.914] Good reliability
Intelligibility 93.8 0.814 [0.693, 0.887] Good reliability
Articulatory 92.2 0.795 [0.654, 0.877] Good reliability
Phonatory 93.8 0.783 [0.643, 0.868] Good reliability
Resonatory 92.2 0.536 [0.238, 0.718] Moderate reliability
Respiratory 89.1 0.631 [0.396, 0.775] Moderate reliability
Speaking rate 90.6 0.565 [0.281, 0.736] Moderate reliability
Consistency 57.8 0.195 [−0.323, 0.511] Poor reliability

Note. Each label was graded using a 5-point Likert scale (i.e., normal, mild, moderate, severe, and profound). ICC = intraclass correlation coefficient; CI = confidence interval.
