Abstract: Abstract Daily evaluations of certified registered nurse anesthetists’ (CRNAs’) work habits by anesthesiologists should be adjusted for rater leniency. The current study tested the hypothesis that there is a pairwise association by rater between leniencies of evaluations of CRNAs’ daily work habits and of didactic lectures. The historical cohorts were anesthesiologists’ evaluations over 53 months of CRNAs’ daily work habits and 65 months of didactic lectures by visiting professors and faculty. The binary endpoints were the Likert scale scores for all 6 and 10 items, respectively, equaling the maximums of 5 for all items, or not. Mixed effects logistic regression estimated the odds of each ratee performing above or below average adjusted for rater leniency. Bivariate errors in variables least squares linear regression estimated the association between the leniency of the anesthesiologists’ evaluations of work habits and didactic lectures. There were 29/107 (27%) raters who were more severe in their evaluations of CRNAs’ work habits than other anesthesiologists (two-sided P
