Preferred Label : observer variation;
MeSH definition : The failure by the observer to measure or identify a phenomenon accurately, which
results in an error. Sources for this may be due to the observer's missing an abnormality,
or to faulty technique resulting in incorrect test measurement, or to misinterpretation
of the data. Two varieties are inter-observer variation (the amount observers vary
from one another when reporting on the same material) and intra-observer variation
(the amount one observer varies between observations when reporting more than once
on the same material).;
MeSH synonym : variation, observer; observer variations; variations, observer; bias, observer; observer bias;
