K-Alpha Calculator–Krippendorff's Alpha Calculator: A user-friendly tool for computing Krippendorff's Alpha inter-rater reliability coefficient

Krippendorff's Alpha is a measure for assessing inter-rater reliability, facilitating triangulated evaluations among multiple raters. Indeed, Krippendorff's Alpha is key in validating the dependability of human assessments, thereby reinforcing the robustness of human-based choices in contexts where interpretive variability could otherwise undermine the research outcomes. Despite its versatility across various data types, the procedure for computing this coefficient might limit its applicability for researchers unfamiliar with specialised statistical software. Addressing this issue, this paper introduces the "K-Alpha Calculator"-Krippendorff's Alpha Calculator-a freely accessible, user-friendly, web application…
