More on the Comparison of Intra-Class Correlation Coefficients (ICCs) as Measures of Homogeneity

Abstract

This article is a response to the two articles about our chapter (Cohen & Doveh, this volume). The first article was written by Viechtbauer and Budescu and the second written by Hanges and Lyon (both in this volume). The main contribution in the first article relates to the statistical methodology, while in the second article the authors introduce further applications to our method and discuss the interpretability of intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC). We concur with most of the ideas expressed in these articles and elaborate on some of the points raised in them.
