"repair assignment" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
It typically refers to a job that involves fixing something, often used in a professional context. For example: "The construction company received a repair assignment on an old bridge."
All these cases were assigned repair by inferred assignment in the same exercise.
An inferred assignment of repair was made 254 times, and progression was assigned 143 times, which gives us the prior probability of repair (64%).
A second, related scam: repair contractors seeking an "assignment of benefits".
Percentage correctly classified, 75%; false direct assignment of repair, 1.5%; false direct assignment of progression, 23%; positive predictive value, 96%; negative predictive value, 58%.
For each reader we compared the direct assignment of repair with the inferred assignment, using the inferred assignment as the gold standard because this only involves one decision about better/worse.
The relatively low kappa values for intra-reader and inter-reader agreement indicate that basing the assignment of repair on the judgement of only one expert is not reliable.
In those cases in which 'filling-in of erosion' was considered present, however, only 67% of the cases were given a single joint inferred assignment of repair, as compared with the prior probability of 64%.
The judgements of the single joints of Exercise II were then compared with the judgements of the single joints of Exercise I. Inter-reader agreement for Exercise II was assessed for each reader pair for both the single joint inferred assignment of repair and progression and the whole hand/foot direct assignment.
After the judgement of the whole hand or foot, without knowledge of the joint-of-interest, we unblinded the joint-of-interest and again performed an indirect assignment of repair; we then compared these results with the results of the indirect assignment of the single joint experiment (Exercise I), both at the level of the individual experts and at the level of the panel.
The joint-of-interest in the first exercise was then indicated to the readers, and they repeated their review and chose which joint was better, and which film was first in time, to make possible a second inferred assignment of repair or progression.
