Confidence interval for a Cronbach reliability

Description

Computes a confidence interval for a population Cronbach reliability. The point estimate of Cronbach reliability assumes essentially tau-equivalent measurements and the confidence interval assumes parallel measurements.

Usage

ci.cronbach(alpha, rel, r, n)

Arguments

alpha

alpha level for 1-alpha confidence

rel

estimated Cronbach reliability

r

number of measurements (items, raters, etc.)

n

sample size

Value

Returns a 1-row matrix. The columns are:

  • Estimate - estimated Cronbach reliability (from input)

  • LL - lower limit of the confidence interval

  • UL - upper limit of the confidence interval
