The document discusses the reliability of data sets. It defines reliability as ensuring consistent measurement free of bias and error. There are four main types of reliability: test-retest, parallel-form, inter-rater, and split-half. Test-retest reliability compares results over time. Parallel-form reliability correlates responses on comparable question forms. Inter-rater reliability compares ratings across different raters. Split-half reliability correlates scores on halves of a test. The document also outlines steps to calculate reliability in SPSS.
