80% conformity by transcription

[Brian MacWhinney]

Dear Natalia,
    We have a system for comparing coding on dependent tiers.  It is  
call RELY and
it works well for this purpose.  However, for main lines, no one has  
ever defined exactly
what reliability would mean, so we have never implemented this.  In  
fact, few people
have even tried to approach this.  I have a vague memory that some  
people in speech
and hearing made a try.  I remember reviewing grant proposals to  
address this issue,
but basically I can't point you to anything solid here at all.  Your  
next step could be
info-childes, I guess.
