Classical Reliability Information

Scale(s) Number of Items Cronbach’s Alpha Corrected Item-Total Correlation
Minimum Average Maximum
ASR 14 .89 .35 .58 .75
BSI 6 .91 .61 .76 .85
PROMIS 8 .96 .81 .85 .90
ASR+PROMIS 22 .95 .34 .67 .86
BSI+PROMIS 14 .97 .61 .81 .89
ASR+BSI+PROMIS 28 .97 .34 .69 .87

Note: All correlations are significant at the p < .01 level. No scale would have had a higher alpha if an item were dropped.
