   Question

   The correlations between the items of two measurement instruments are as follows:

   

   From which measurement instrument will the internal consistency of the scale (the Cronbach’s alpha) be higher?

   
   
   1. TRUE: The Cronbach’s alpha from measurement instrument 1 is higher.
   2. FALSE: The Cronbach’s alpha from measurement instrument 2 is higher.
   3. FALSE: The Cronbach’s alpha’s of both measurement instruments are equally high.
   4. FALSE: Based on this information it is not possible to determine which Cronbach’s alpha is higher.
   
   

   Solution

   The Cronbach’s alpha from instrument 1 is higher. Because the items are higher correlated.
