There are many possible statistics that might be used for item selection in the scale construction process.  The Stata command alpha (see help alpha) gives the Chronbach's alpha statistic, plus calculates alpha if item is deleted and item-rest correlations.

Dear stata members,

I want to do an item selectivity but I don?t know the stata command (I 
always use SPSS). Is it right that I use the correlation between the 
item and the total sum of the construct, e.g:
correlate allgAZ GesamtAZ

But then I don?t get any significane level.......

Thanks for your support
