AB In  Chapter  5  we  introduced  basic  concepts  of  reliability  and  described  how  different  forms  of  reliability  can  be  addressed  in  the  planning  of  research  protocols.  The  purpose  of  this  chapter  is  to  expand  on  these  concepts  by  presenting  the  statistical  bases  for  estimates  of  reliability,  including  measures  of  correlation,  agreement,  internal  consistency,  response  stability  and  method  comparison  for  alternate  forms.  We  have  waited  until  this  point  in  the  book  to  present  these  procedures  because  they  require  application  of  statistical  concepts  that  have  been  covered  in  the  preceding  chapters.
