Explanation
★Inter-coder reliability is used in content analysis, so option D is correct.
★Content analysis systematically classifies texts by coding words, themes, or concepts.
★When several coders classify the same material, their agreement must be checked.
★Inter-coder reliability measures how consistently different coders assign the same codes.
★High agreement shows the coding scheme is clear and objective.
★This strengthens the credibility of the quantified content findings.
★The method lets researchers quantify the presence and meaning of chosen categories in text.
