Some recent references to coefficient (Cronbach's) alpha:
Cortina, J.M. (1993). What is coefficient alpha? An
examination of theory and applications. Journal of Applied
Psychology, 78, 98-104.
Miller, M.B. (1995). Coefficient alpha: A basic introduction
from the perspectives of classical test theory and structural
equation modeling. Structural Equation Modeling, 2(3), 255-273.
Reuterberg, S.E., & Gustafsson, J.E. (1992). Confirmatory
factor analysis and reliability: Testing measurement model
assumptions. Educational and Psychological Measurement, 52,
795-811.
Zimmerman, D.W., Zumbo, B.D., & Lalonde, C. (1993).
Coefficient alpha as an estimate of test reliability under
violation of two assumptions. Educational and Psychological
Measurement, 53, 33-49.
Isn't it amazing that coefficient alpha has been around for about 60
years [Kuder & Richardson, 1937 (KR20)], and articles continue to be
written explaining what it is, how it works and when to use it?
