Subject:      Item-total correlation
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi:

Does anyone have a cite regarding what the minimum necessary value for an item-total correlation should be, which would demonstrate  that the item is strongly related to the items consituting a particular scale?  What would/should that value be?

Thanks,
John.
