Ringkasan	McDonald's omega adapted for computerized adaptive testing (CAT) quantifies the reliability of ability or trait estimates when different examinees answer different subsets of items. Unlike Cronbach's alpha, omega is grounded in a factor model, making it suitable for the heterogeneous item pools and variable test lengths that characterize adaptive administrations.	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.
