Abstract
Krippendorff’s alpha (α) is a reliability coefficient developed to measure the agreement between observers, coders, judges, raters, or measuring instruments. It emerged in content analysis but is widely applicable wherever two or more methods of processing data are applied to the same set of objects, units of analysis, or items and the question is how much they agree.
