“…This pattern also appears in previous ZTPI validations. Furthermore, even if there are more recent and more precise methods than Cronbach's alphas for measuring internal consistency (Schweizer 2011), the use of this classical reliability measurement is adequate in the present study because it was used in several previous ZTPI validations (see Table 1); hence, it provides comparative information. Inter-item correlations are considered to be acceptable if they are between 0.15 and 0.50 (Clark and Watson 1995).…”

The index is not only suited for latent variables based on indicators of interval or ratio measurement level but also for binary or ordered categorical indicators (Bentler, 2009). Schweizer (2011 proposes to use this measure within SEM.…”
