Subclaims¶

q2 i? In Study 1, McDonald's omega reached ωICL = 0.93, ωECL = 0.91, and ωGCL = 0.88 for the three load-type scales. → Krieglstein 2023 q2 i? In Study 2, internal consistency of the three factors was assessed as good to very good (ωICL = 0.93; ωECL = 0.93; ωGCL = 0.80). → Krieglstein 2023 (2)

q2 · i? · design · r3

Reliability analysis within the Study 1 PCA (n = 69) after item reduction. The article reports "Internal consistencies were satisfactory across the cog- nitive load types" with the printed omega values for each scale.

"Internal consistencies were satisfactory across the cog- nitive load types ( ωICL = 0.93; ωECL = 0.91; ωGCL = 0.88). U nsurprisingly, the overall reliability of ω = 0.61 was rather low"

q2 · i? · design · r3

Reliability analysis within the Study 2 confirmatory factor analysis (n = 158 Prolific participants rating a nerve-cell material). The article reports the three factors' internal consistency as "good to very good" with the printed omega values.

"In addition, the internal consistency of the three factors (respectively cognitive load types) can be assessed as good to very good ( ωICL = 0.93; ωECL = 0.93; ωGCL = 0.80)."
