We present a general approach based on chi‐square goodness‐of‐fit tests for performing tests of significance about the kappa statistic. We make recommendations for the particular goodness‐of fit test to use under different situations. We also compare the test statistics in terms of the generated confidence intervals about the kappa statistic.
