This study introduces new statistical methods to assess if measurement methods or observers are interchangeable, ensuring individual equivalence. These methods, including the individual equivalence coefficient (IEC), provide robust agreement assessment for method comparison and reliability studies.

Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Method Comparison Studies
  • Reliability Studies

Background:

  • Evaluating agreement between measurement methods or observers is crucial for method comparison and reliability.
  • Interchangeability requires individual measurements from different methods to be similar to replicated measurements from the same method (individual equivalence).
  • This concept is analogous to bioequivalence studies for drugs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose methods for assessing individual agreement among multiple measurement methods.
  • To extend individual bioequivalence criteria to individual equivalence criteria for method comparison.
  • To introduce new coefficients for quantifying individual agreement between methods.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing moment criteria based on FDA guidelines for individual bioequivalence.

  • Extending criteria to develop an individual equivalence coefficient (IEC) for comparing multiple methods against references.
  • Proposing a new IEC for scenarios without a reference method and a coefficient of individual agreement (CIA).
  • Employing a method of moments for estimation (using ANOVA output) and nonparametric/bootstrap approaches for inference.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed methods allow for the assessment of individual equivalence among multiple measurement methods.
    • The individual equivalence coefficient (IEC) and coefficient of individual agreement (CIA) provide quantitative measures of agreement.
    • The methods are illustrated with five practical examples.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed statistical framework effectively assesses individual agreement and interchangeability between measurement methods.
    • The proposed IEC and CIA offer valuable tools for researchers in method comparison and reliability studies.
    • These methods enhance the rigor of evaluating measurement consistency and the potential for method replacement.
