Help the Stat Consulting Group by giving a gift. Cronbach's alpha is a measure of internal consistency, that is, how closely related a set of items are as a group. It is considered to be a measure of scale reliability. A high value for alpha does not imply that the measure is unidimensional.elp the Stat Consulting Group by giving a gift.

An endospore is an extremely resistant dormant cell structure produced by some bacterial species. If you break down the term endospore, 'endo-' means 'inside' and '-spore' refers to the 'dormant structure,' so the endospore is a structured formed inside the cell.
1. Endospores are dormant alternate life forms produced by a few genera of bacteria. 2. The genus Bacillus (an obligate aerobe often living in the soil) and the genus Clostridium (an obligate anaerobe living in the gastrointestinal tract of animals) produce endospores.3.nder conditions of starvation, especially the lack of carbon and nitrogen sources, a single endospores form within some of the bacteria. The process is called sporulation (def). First the DNA replicates (Fig. 3, step 1)and a cytoplasmic membrane septum forms at one end of the cell (Fig.
