Përmbledhja	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.	Item response theory models the probability that a respondent answers an item correctly (or endorses it) as a function of the respondent's latent trait level and the item's own statistical properties — difficulty, discrimination, and guessing. Unlike classical test theory, IRT places persons and items on the same scale, yielding measurement that is sample-independent for items and test-independent for persons.
