“…In studies with offenders, the Cronbach's coefficient alphas have ranged between .60 and .93. The subscales that did not show acceptable levels of internal consistency varied across studies: precontemplation = .69 (Cohen, Glaser, Calhoun, Bradshaw, & Petrocelli, 2005), contemplation = .60 (Polaschek et al, 2010) and maintenance = .61 (Austin et al, 2011). Cronbach's coefficient alphas for the SMP URICA-21 in this study were as follows at pre-SMP: full scale = .78, precontemplation = .62, contemplation = .85, action = .80 and maintenance = .77.…”
