What is Reliability?

Reliability is the extent of

unsystematic variation of one
individuals scores (From
Ghiselli, et al., 1981, p. 191).

In English: Reliability is
Consistency.

Reliability is not Validity.

 Some Ways to Estimate Reliability

Repetition of Test (Test -

Retest)

Parallel Forms

Comparable Parts (Split Half

Reliability)

Interrelations Among Test

Elements (Internal
Heru Wiryanto@2006 9

Consistency)
So What Can We Conclude?

If your reliability estimates are too low,

then your corrections will be too high.

If your reliability estimates are too high,

then your corrections will be too low.

So how would you estimate reliability?
