4.2 Reliability Test<br />

According to George & Mallery (2003), reliability is the degree to which measure are free from<br />

error and therefore yield consistent results. The reliability <strong>of</strong> a measure indicates the stability and<br />

consistency with which the instrument measures the concept and helps to assess the „goodness‟<br />

<strong>of</strong> a measure (Cavana, Delahaye and Sekaran, 2001). According to Sekaran (2003), the closer the<br />

reliability coefficient gets to 1.0, the better it is, and those values over .80 are considered as<br />

good. Those values in the .70 is considered as acceptable and those reliability value less than .60<br />

is considered to be poor (Sekaran, 2003). All the constructs were tested for the consistency<br />

reliability <strong>of</strong> the items within the constructs by using Cronbach‟s alpha reliability analysis.<br />

Cronbach‟s Alpha values in respect <strong>of</strong> each variable are given in table 4.2 below. Respondents<br />

were also assured about the confidentiality as information shared in this regard would be used for<br />

academic and research purposes only. In conclusion, the results showed that the scores <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Cronbach‟s alpha for all the constructs exceeded the threshold <strong>of</strong> 0.70 indicating that the<br />

measurement scales <strong>of</strong> the constructs were stable and consistent.<br />
