A team of researchers has developed a structured interview to diagnose a new type of personality disorder. A series of trials to check the reliability of the structured interview yields a kappa of .75. How should the researchers view this result?
A) Kappa is not the appropriate measure to be used when evaluating the reliability of a new diagnostic category.
B) The kappa is not at an acceptable level but encouraging for a new instrument that can be improved.
C) The kappa is at an acceptable level for well-established diagnostic instruments, so the interview is ready to be used in clinical settings.
D) The kappa is so low they decide to abandon the project.
