Cohen's kappa and weighted kappa statistics are the conventional methods that are used widely in measuring agreement for categorical responses. In this paper, we propose a general framework for the fixed-effects modeling of Cohen's weighted kappa for bivariate multinomial data which reduces to...

We propose an adaptive truncated product method that facilitates the selection of the truncation point among a set of candidates. To efficiently estimate the distribution of the proposed method when the p-values are correlated, we develop a single-layer bootstrap procedure.
