A researcher wishes to estimate the reliability of the new test of a person's sense of humor, the LOL test (Lambda Orientation Level).
 
  The test is composed of a total of 40 items, and the researcher splits the scoring in order to compare each subject's score on the odd numbered items with those on the even numbered items. A total of 10 adult males was randomly selected and their scores were as follows:
   Odd Even
  Subject  X Y
  1 15 17
  2. 10 13
  3. 5 8
  4. 8 8
  5. 12 12
  6. 13 13
  7. 7 10
  8. 10 8
  9. 11 12
  10. 9 9
 
  Estimate the reliability of the whole test.
 
 What will be an ideal response?

Question 2
