there are different ways to estimate reliability‚ it is necessary to provide a definition for the word reliability.” Reliability refers to the consistency of a measure. A test is considered reliable if we get the same result repeatedly. For example‚ if a test is designed to measure a trait (such as introversion)‚ then each time the test is administered to a subject‚ the results should be approximately the same. Unfortunately‚ it is impossible to calculate reliability exactly‚ but it can be estimated

Reliability Analysis Reliability analysis is an important component of engineering work that draws on the areas of probability and statistics. As the name suggests‚ reliability analysis is concerned with the investigation of the failure rates of components and systems‚ which are typically represented as probabilities. Life testing is a general term used to describe the experimentation and statistical analysis performed to investigate failure rates. Probability distributions that are used to model

purpose of the study. To ensure that this was achieved‚ the survey needed to demonstrate validity and reliability. Validity‚ as described by Heale and Twycross (2015‚ 66)‚ examines whether the specific concept has been accurately measured. In contrast‚ according to Floss (2013‚1)‚ reliability refers to the consistency of the instrument to measure the concept. The instrument needed to feature external validity in order for the data collected to be generalised (Heale and Twycross 2015‚ 66). To ensure
