Help on Cronbach's alpha test

Wadau niko na tatizo hapa.
Nataka ni analyse data flani ya questionnaire hapa na nimeji funza spss to some extent.
Data eneyewe ni zicook i.e nime jaza responses for the questionnaire.
Shida ni nashuku nikifanya Cronbach’s alpha test naona kama ita kua below the recommended threshold.
My question then is, is the Cronbach’s alpha test necessary?
Kuna shida kama hio result ya hio Cronbach’s alpha test ita kua chini ya recommended threshold?

Ask yourself why you carry out reliability analysis…(To determine the internal consistency).
In case the cronbach coefficient is below the required threshold of 0.7 remove an item and see whether it will increase…

What is the consequences of me proceeding ahead with the analysis and research if the results are below 0.7?

Some authors recommend coefficients above 0.6. With values below 0.6 or 0.7…You are more likely to have spurious figures…results, perform factor analysis and eliminate items with less than 0.5 factor loadings

Your result will lack validity and reliability. A low value of alpha could be due to a low number of questions, poor or lack of inter-relatedness between items or heterogeneous constructs as someone said hapo juu. Ongeza maswali za kijinga kwa questionnaire. Did you check the reliability and validity of your tool before kujaza?
ION, if your research project is in the arts or humanities field, ain’t at the PHD level and you are undertaking it in a Kenyan university possibly based along Thika road, wacha kujisumbua. Tafuta magwiji wakuandikie mpaka final report na article to be published. There is no new and original research you will ever undertake in a Kenyan university. By your own admission, you are cooking the responses meaning hata wewe unajua ni umeffi.

In such a situation…One is supposed to delete an item(s)

To some extent nili collect data na nika ona vile watu wana respond kisha nika jua vile nita jijazia the rest of the questionnaires. So kwa ufupi niliokota data kiasi na the rest nika jijazia.
Sasa, nisha fill all those information kwa spss na nika fika pahali nina faa kufanya reliability test na nika shindwa cha kufanya ( kumbuka mimi sijaiva spss vizuri).
Sasa nilikua nataka nijue kama ni muimu sana ku kufanya Cronbach’s alpha test ama naeza skip hio test na niendele ku analyse ma frequencies?

Ok sawa

At masters and PhD level you must perform reliability and validity tests…Also include other diagnostic tests before carrying out inferential analysis.
