Inter-rater reliability refers to the degree of agreement between different raters scoring the same test. The TAT has been found to have a range of inter-rater reliability from adequate to very high. This means that different raters generally agree on the scores given to the same TAT responses. Split-half reliability refers to the consistency of scores on different halves of the test; test-retest reliability refers to the consistency of scores over time; and inter-item consistency refers to the degree of agreement between different items on the same test. While reliability in these areas has been tested for the TAT, it is not specifically mentioned in the question stem.
