aWithout the auto-coding system.
bMedian time consumed in part 1=5 minutes 39 seconds (95% CI 5 minutes 1 second to 7 minutes 54 seconds).
cWith the auto-coding system.
dMedian time consumed in part 2=5 minutes 43 seconds (95% CI 4 minutes 56 seconds to 6 minutes 52 seconds).
eNonsignificant difference in the mean time consumed by coders between parts 1 and 2 of the study (2-tailed P=.64 derived from a paired samples Wilcoxon signed-rank test).
fMedian F1-score in part 1=0.832 (95% CI 0.744-0.915).
gMedian F1-score in part 2=0.922 (95% CI 0.836-0.963).
hSignificant difference in mean F1-scores between parts 1 and 2 (2-tailed P<.05 derived from a paired samples Wilcoxon rank sum test).
