The obtained (or observed) score is the value obtained from measurement. The true score is the true value that would be obtained if it were possible to have an infallible measure. The true score is hypotheticalit cannot be known because measures are not infallible. The final term in the equation is the error of measurement, which is the difference between true and obtained scores. When the reliability assessment focuses on equivalence between observers or coders assigning scores, estimates of interrater (or interobserver) reliability are obtained. Internal consistency reliability, which refers to the extent to which the entire instrument's items are measuring the same attribute, is usually assessed with Cronbach's alpha.
