    Finally somebody who knows what they are talking about. Can I suggest you something if you will? When you are explaining the numbers in terms of reliability and what is acceptable, could you elaborate it with help of the real data. Like if the numbers were to change reliability figures, how the real data would be affected. Anyway, thanks for this great explanation.

    Strictly speaking, I do not believe SPSS produces item discrimination index values. However, the corrected item-total correlations will give you nearly the identical information (from an interpretation perspective). It's rare to see people use item discrimination index values these days.

    You would only interpret standardized Cronbach's alpha if your data are standardized (e.g., z-scores or T-scores, etc.). You don't "pick and choose".

  • @how2stats
    @how2stats  13 лет назад

    usually, there is not a lot you can do, except admit that your scale is not internally consistent enough to interpret meaningfully. Sometimes you can drop more than one item to enhance Cronbach's alpha, but not often. If you are knowledgeable enough, you could try analysing polychoric correlations or tetrachortic correlations rather than Pearson correlations, depending on how your items are scored. I haven't covered that yet. Perhaps google will help you find something.

    It's impossible to calculate Cronbach's alpha on one variable. You need at least two. Include the variables you are interested in with respect to their corresponding internal consistency reliability.

    Very helpful and good explanation. Thank you! I just have two questions to the understanding of results regarding Cronbachs Alpha:
    1) In the 'Inter-item Correlation Matrix' is there any "rule of thumb" of what should be the highest and lowest scores in the table? Example; if you have scores like .787 and .858, will these be ok or should they not exceed .70?

    Thanks for the suggestion, dc78. MLM is a pretty specific type of analysis (I never come across them expect in the context of education research), but I imagine I'll get around to it eventually. If you come across a really interesting empirical study that has used MLM, perhaps you could send it to me.

    2) In the 'Item-Total Statistics' and the 'Corrected Item-total Correlation'; the items should be between .30 and .70 (.75) however, if you have scores that are above .75 (example; .813) would you then say that the iten should be deleted or kept? The item of .813 does not indicate that Cronbachs Alpha could get any higher by deleting the item.
