Abstract

Reliability generalization (RG) was used to study five versions of the Working Alliance Inventory (WAI), including scores from 12 different scales. Sixty-seven internal consistency estimates, six interrater reliability estimates, and four study characteristics were analyzed. In general, reliability estimates of WAI scale scores appear to be robust. Mean reliability estimates ranged, in this sample of studies, from .79 to .97, with a modal estimate of .92. Variability in reliability estimates was, based on simple bivariate correlations, associated with client and therapist sample size for WAI total scores (observer version). Implications for measuring alliance using the WAI and conducting future RG studies on psychotherapy process measures are discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
