Abstract

This study examined the internal consistency of the data by testing the reliability of the adapted questionnaire. Reliability was measured using Cronbach’s Alpha, a common indicator of internal consistency. The assessment involved 31 respondents. The questionnaire contained items rated on a 5-point Likert scale, focusing on key factors influencing AI adoption among SMEs, such as Relative Advantage and Compatibility. The Cronbach’s Alpha results showed an adequate level of internal consistency, confirming that the instrument effectively measured the targeted aspects. These results proved the reliability of the questionnaire, and the variables studied, demonstrating their effectiveness in analyzing factors affecting AI adoption. Therefore, developing a thorough questionnaire is essential to collect valid and meaningful data that can help SMEs make well-informed decisions about AI implementation.
