<p>Alphas should be dropped, and the process should be repeated from Step 3. Remember that Alphas are not proof of scale quality or content validity. <b>[</b>Coefficient alpha=number of items<sup>2</sup> x average correlation between different items/sum of all correlations in the <a href="page.php?w=correlation_matrix">correlation matrix</a> (including the diagonal values)<b>]</b><br/>
#Run correlational or regressional statistics to ensure the validity of the scale. For better practices, keep the final factors and all loadings of yours and similar</p><p>
