Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Internal consistency refers to the degree of correlation or agreement between different items or sections of a test that are intended to measure the same construct. It indicates whether the items are measuring the same thing consistently or not. The other options are other types of reliability measures: construct reliability pertains to how well a test measures a certain construct, interrater reliability refers to the consistency between different raters who score or evaluate the same test, and test-retest reliability relates to the consistency of scores over time or across repeated administrations of the same test.
