There appears to be a lower reliability of data from the U95B-E and U133B chips, which has been observed with many other genes and may reflect incorrect mapping of the gene to that Affymetrix feature.
For scales or domains that are relatively unilateral, reliability was expected to be high (>0.80); for scales or domains that are more multifaceted, a lower reliability of at least 0.70 was considered acceptable.
As we know, a smaller possibility degree means a lower reliability of the interval constraint.
Differences in target populations, age range, data collection, diagnostic and classification criteria, methodological study design, and a lower reliability of retrospective studies, may account for such controversial results.
One explanation of the lower male heritability (and greater E) is a lower reliability of depression reporting among men in Sri Lanka, mimicking greater environmental variation, although there is inconclusive evidence for gender differences in reliability of depression reporting.
To examine the extent to which the lower reliability of this variable may affect its validity, insofar as its association with theoretically related variables is concerned, we calculated a Pearson product moment correlation between this variable (including the potential outliers) and the standard deviation of reaction times in the fast-incentive condition of the fast task.
This issue may be related to the lower reliability of the FRC retainers.
This difference between traits may occur due to the lower reliability of the DEBV for AFI and TNB, which lowers the accuracy when the number of observations is preset.
In particular, the DNA samples used in the diversity panel of this study were prepared at eight different laboratories, so differences in DNA quality may also have contributed to the lower reliability of the scores.
