A psychologist wishes to establish the reliability of a new IQ test that is
  based on a variety of brain measures (including neural conduction speed and the
  rate at which glucose in the brain is metabolized).
 
  These brain measures are
  factored together to provide a single scaled score for each subject. The
  subjects were randomly selected from a population of young adults and given the
  same brain test twice. The data are as follows:
 
   TEST RETEST
   Subject  Brain Scaled Score Brain Scaled Score
   1. 50 55
   2. 60 57
   3. 65 64
   4. 40 45
   5. 35 40
   6. 40 38
   7. 60 57
   8. 55 54
   9. 50 48
   10. 45 45
   11. 52 50
   12. 48 50
   13. 51 52
   14. 49 50
   15. 50 50
   16. 50 49
   17. 37 40
   18. 63 60
   19. 50 50
   20. 50 50
 
  What is the reliability of this new test.
 
 
 What will be an ideal response?
