Is it correct to use the bolded term? Thanks a lot..

It depends on whether the concept of calculating accuracy has different senses. To me, not an expert in such matters, it seems that there is only one "sense" in which you can take the idea of calculating accuracy. Maybe you mean Leong and Kim's method of calculating accuracy?

What is the other term that is appropriate to replace the bolded term? I used the same means as Leong (1973) and Kim (1991) to calculate the accuracy but then my examiner said this term is not suitable. Thanks a lot…

Doesn't your examiner say which term is suitable?

I follow their approach. How about “By justifying” to replace “In the sense of”

Thanks a lot..
