Statistical Treatment/Tool
The attached instrument/tool has been checked, reviewed, and verified in terms of the appropriate
statistical parameters based on its scaling and scoring:
Internal consistency applies to how efficiently the components in each test or measuring
instrument agree or correlate with one another. Cronbach's alpha is a commonly used metric to
assess internal consistency in scales that have more than one item. Elevated levels of Cronbach's
alpha signify more internal consistency, implying that the test items are assessing the same
fundamental concept. Additionally, a collection of methods used to enumerate and characterize a
dataset's key attributes is referred to as descriptive statistics. The primary features of a set of data
are succinctly and meaningfully summarized by these statistical metrics. Central tendency
measurements like the mean, median, and mode are examples of common descriptive statistics.
