Leifeng Xiao; Kit-Tai Hau; Melissa Dan Wang – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2024
Short scales are time-efficient for participants and cost-effective in research. However, researchers often mistakenly expect short scales to have the same reliability as long ones without considering the effect of scale length. We argue that applying a universal benchmark for alpha is problematic as the impact of low-quality items is greater on…
