The inter-rater reliabilty of the total Glasgow Coma Scale is p=0.86. Some research has subdivided the inter-rater reliabiltiy for each subscale.

Reliability[edit | edit source]

The inter-rater reliabilty of the total Glasgow Coma Scale is p=0.86. Some research has subdivided the inter-rater reliabiltiy for each subscale. For the eye score the inter-rater reliability is p=0.76, the verbal score is p=0.67, and the motor score is p=0.81  [2] The research for test-retest reliability is not recent and should be updated, however it is k=0.66-0.77 [3]
