Muhtasari	Short-form test-retest reliability quantifies how consistently an abbreviated version of a measurement instrument produces the same scores across two administrations separated by a defined time interval. It is a critical validation step whenever a full-length scale is shortened for practical use, confirming that item reduction has not degraded temporal stability.	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.
