Bar chart
How 100 Delphi studies handled consensus

A bar chart from a 2014 systematic review by Diamond and colleagues of 100 Delphi studies. 98 said they assessed consensus, but only 72 defined it, and the most common definition was percent agreement with a median threshold of 75%. Use it as a reminder to write down your consensus threshold and stopping rule before the first round. Koji can run each round as AI-moderated voice or text interviews with scale and ranking questions.
