Abstract:Ensuring reliable measurements is crucial for minimising errors in assessments. The assessmentcommunity commonly employs the evaluation of reliability coefficients to estimate the dependability oftest scores. Despite its significance, limited research has explored the relationship between the estimated reliability coefficient and the number of scale points utilised. This study aims to provide valuable insights to practitioners by investigating the optimal number of scale points required for the most accurate r… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
