Calculating and Interpreting Cronbach's Alpha Using SPSS

This video describes how to calculate and interpret Cronbach's alpha using SPSS.

Very useful and comprehensive explanation - literally at the level of each option. Would take years, but the entire SPSS manual should be like this.

This keeps showing up in my YouTube recommendations so I finally clicked it! 😏

Thank you so much for your video! I would not have graduating with my masters without it!

Like many others, I did not know that Cronbach's alpha existed prior to this video and can definitely see it's usefulness as a statistic being that Likert scales are quite common. Thank you for posting this.

I am completely unfamiliar with Cronbach's Alpha, but this video clearly explained it as a test of reliability of a scale, and is popularly used when working with Likert scales. I also learned that Cronbach's Alpha does not work in determining reliability for one item, but rather for a series of items. Overall, very informative and clearly explained material.

Thank you very much. This video is very educative.

Straight to the point and easy to understand. Knowing that the item 7 is a good Alpha, whereas 8 or 9 Cronbach's Alpha would give us a lower reliability.

This is definitely my favorite statistic. I liked his explanation of Cronbach's Alpha and what it does. I liked, too, how he explained if there were deleted items, what we should do with them, and how we should determine if items should be deleted. This was really helpful.

Thanks Dr. Grande, writting my masters thesis at the moment and your videos are just what I need!

This was the first time I have heard of Cronbach's Alpha. It was very interesting to see that SPSS can show you what items could be removed to make it more reliable.

I found this video to be very interesting. I liked the explanation of Cronbach's Alpha and what it does. I thought that it was really helpful. I also liked how Dr. Grande explained the Cronbach's Alpha if items deleated and how we can use that to determine if items potentially should be deleted.

I was very nervous about this video because I have never even heard of Cronbach's Alpha, but it was very interesting to learn about. I do not think that I 100% understood everything in this video, but with a bit of Googling I feel more confident towards this subject.

I have never heard of Cronbach’s Alpha before but this video provided a very good explanation. I feel confident about this concept after watching the video. I also think this video was helpful since so many people use Likert scales.

Sir thank you for your precious guidance, it's a request if you can do something to increase the volume in your future videos

[Ruby-evym]

Thank you for your video! SPSS brings me back to my grad school days!

[MohdFirdausYhy]

Thank you Dr. Todd for your great explanation.

I remember using SPSS back in the day of Windows 3.1 and dot matrix printers... I'm not actually THAT old, my school was just pretty out of date in the 90s. 😂 Research design and methods was always my favorite class though. 💙

[my-little-pony]

Thank you very much for your explanation! It was soooo clear!

[alexcombrink]

Brilliant video! I am currently doing my final year at uni, and i am using pre-existing psychometric scales and I will check the validity of these scales against the literature.
