| Rezumat≠ | Polytomous McDonald's omega estimates the internal consistency reliability of a scale composed of ordinal (polytomous) items — such as Likert-type responses — by computing omega from a factor model fitted to the polychoric correlation matrix rather than the Pearson correlation matrix, yielding estimates that are unbiased by the discreteness of item responses. | Ordinal Cronbach's alpha is a reliability coefficient computed from polychoric or polyserial correlations rather than Pearson correlations, making it appropriate for Likert-type and other ordinal item response data. It corrects the systematic downward bias that standard Cronbach's alpha produces when items are treated as continuous but are actually ordinal. |
