I have utilized SPSS to analyze the reliability of survey subscales by going to Scale/Reliability Analysis/Alpha. Below is the resulting output. Is this enough analysis to determine the reliability of a survey or do I need to do more?
If so, what? What is the best way to describe what the alpha value means in lay person terms?
