Резюме	Cronbach's alpha applied to computerized adaptive test (CAT) data estimates internal consistency reliability under the special condition that different examinees receive different subsets of items. Because the classic formula assumes every respondent answers the same items, its direct application to CAT data violates core assumptions and typically underestimates or misrepresents true reliability, requiring careful adaptation or replacement with IRT-based reliability indices.	Cronbach's alpha is a coefficient of internal consistency that quantifies the degree to which a set of items on a scale measures the same underlying construct. Introduced by Lee J. Cronbach in 1951, it remains the most widely reported reliability index in social-science, health, and educational research.
