Abstract
Some characteristics of Hubert’s Г, as a measure
of nominal scale response agreement, are shown,
including the characteristic that in a contingency
table with equal frequencies its value will normally
not be zero. By making a slight modification of its
definition, some of these characteristics can be
eliminated. As another alternative, the J-index is
suggested. It is closely related to Г but does not
have the same problematic characteristics. Some
asymptotic variance formulas for the J-index are
given, together with a numerical example.
