Table 5.
Absolute agreement and weighted κ values for patient-provider concordance for health outcome priorities
| Health Outcome Priority | Absolute Agreement, % (95% CI) | Weighted κa (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|
| Maintaining independence | 31 (26 to 37) | −0.02 (−0.23 to 0.19) |
| Staying alive | 26 (21 to 31) | 0.01 (−0.20 to 0.21) |
| Reducing pain | 30 (24 to 35) | 0.01 (−0.18 to 0.20) |
| Reducing other symptoms | 27 (22 to 33) | −0.07 (−0.47 to 0.32) |
Calculated by treating patients as one rater and providers as another rater.
