ci.reliability

Computes a confidence interval for a population reliability coefficient
such as Cronbach's alpha or McDonald's omega using an estimate of the
reliability and its standard error. The standard error can be a robust
standard error or bootstrap standard error obtained from an SEM program.
Use ci.cronbach for Cronbach's alpha if parallel
measurements can be assumed.
For more details, see Section 2.8 of Bonett (2021, Volume 4)

Implements confidence interval and sample size methods that are especially
useful in psychological research but are also useful in educational, social science,
business, and biological research. This package includes more than 100 confidence
interval functions and more than 80 sample size functions for 1-group, 2-group,
paired-samples, and multiple-group designs and for a variety of parameters including
means, medians, proportions, slopes, standardized mean differences, standardized
linear contrasts of means, and several measures of correlation and association. The
sample size functions can be used to approximate the sample size needed to estimate
a parameter or function of parameters with desired confidence interval precision or
to perform a variety of hypothesis tests (directional two-sided, equivalence,
superiority, noninferiority) with desired power. For details about these methods see:
