The two models fitted are: (a) Φ−1(pij) = η+ui+vj and (b) Φ−1(pij) = η+βxi+ ui+vj+z2v1j; xi is an indicator variable for ith subject’s age (1 for subjects less than or equal to 60 years of age, 0 for subjects greater than 60 years of age). The term z2 = 0 for an inexperienced rater, and 1 for an experienced rater. Parameter estimates are presented with standard errors in parentheses.
