* reliablity() 関数 [#cabcb21b]
** 含まれているパッケージ： Rcmdr [#dd6eb4cf]
CRAN のパッケージ置場にあるので
install.packages( 'Rcmdr' )
で入手できる．
** 使用方法 [#e630ec52]
reliability 関数を用いて Cronbach's alpha を求められる．
> scale01 <- as.data.frame( cbind( Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5 ) )
> reliability( cov( scale01 ) )
*** 問題点 [#weca9616]
reliability 関数の含まれる Rcmdr パッケージは R Commander とよばれるウィンドウを開いて操作するので，library() 関数や require() 関数で呼び出すとウィンドウが開いてしまう．単に reliability() を使いたいだけである場合非常に欝陶しい．
対策：R Commander を終了させ，save(reliability, file="reliability.R") とでもして保存し，次回以降は使いたいときに load("reliability.R") とすればよいでしょう。
