Reliability analysis of the post-study Likert survey administered to undergraduate participants after interacting with the full agent loop. The article reports "α= 0.90" as a descriptive reliability statistic; no effect size applies.

"Cronbach's alpha across the Likert items was α= 0.90, indicating high internal consistency of the survey instrument."
