Reliability in testing refers to theconsistency or stability of scores obtained by the same individuals when re-examined with the same test on different occasions, with equivalent forms of the test, or across different raters or scorers. In other words, a reliable test yields the same or very similar results under consistent conditions. Reliability does not address whether a test measures what it is supposed to measure (that is validity), but rather, it is about the dependability or repeatability of measurement.
