Reporter of cocaine use | % agreement | κ | Yule's Y | % agreement | κ | Yule's Y |
Subject | .84 | .53 | .68 | .87 | .65 | .80 |
Collaterala | .72 | .77 | .30 | .53 |
Note. n = 159 subjects with urine drug test results. Urine drug test results were coded as positive/negative for cocaine use. Timeline Follow-Back data were coded yes/no for cocaine use within each detection window. Boldface values of Yule's Y (≥ .50) reflect acceptable subject-collateral agreement.
Values for kappa and Yule's Y could not be computed for the 3-day detection window because there were no collateral reports of subject cocaine use within the 3-day window (i.e., cell counts = 0).
