At participant completion a file audit is completed in which paper based and electronic records are checked for consistency, completeness and accuracy of data.
JT Daniels is hoping he can do exactly that starting this fall at USC. Daniels, another Mater Dei graduate, was a five-star prospect in the class of 2018 and seems to have everything an evaluator looks for: size (6-2, 205 pounds), production (12,000 yards in three seasons and a touchdown-interception ratio of nearly 11 to 1) and consistency (a completion percentage of almost 70%).
The classification was developed as we went along with data extraction, and reassessed for consistency after completion.
To evaluate internal consistency, upon completion of Procedure 2, raters were then asked to return to each station and record their best guess of the age represented by a particular image, which had also been designated through a block randomization and identified by a star symbol (Procedure 3).
The Likert scale is relatively popular because of its ease of completion and consistency in data encoding.
In a post-TV (post-Breaking-Bad-TV?) viewing era, even a casual audience chewing almonds in front of iTunes wants completion and consistency, to feel led.
It is easy to use and quick to complete (average completion time was eight minutes) and showed good internal consistency and test-retest reliability.
The final survey was then tested in two cohorts of young drivers to confirm internal consistency, time required for survey completion and correlation with crash rate.
Furthermore, computer checks and blinded review of subject tabulations were performed to ensure consistency of case report form completion. Finally, some parents (n = 22) refused participation.
Data were extracted onto a front-end program developed by us to assist consistency of recording and field completion in the data extraction process and to transfer extracted data to a spreadsheet.
