Kurtosis, fatter tails and
higher peaks, or
skewness on the distribution can be problematic for the ratio, as standard deviation doesn't have the same effectiveness when these problems exist.
Because of
skewness and the ordered categorical nature of our variables, we estimated α within a structural equation model framework, which resulted in
higher α coefficients.20 Our ω reliability analyses yielded results consistent with previous studies reporting ω reliabilities for preschool and school - age SDQs.9, 16
Because of the very skewed distribution (
skewness = 3.27 and kurtosis = 11.97) the outcome measure was recoded as a binomial variable (median split), in which 0 indicated a low Disgust mean and 1 a
