Abstract
This paper describes the use of resampling technique in validity testing and reliability testing that are widely used in order to make the measurement tool in the field of psychology and education research. Resampling technique is the technique of resampling sample with replacement or without replacement. Resampling technique can be used to determine whether the item is valid or not by using the percentile confidence interval. The same technique can also be used to determine the significance of reliability coefficients in order to obtain a reliable measurement tool. This technique can also be used to obtain a higher reliability coefficient by reducing the sample size or by reducing the number of items used in the calculation. In this paper, the technique/method is described in the mini-data and case studies using real data that has 40 items and 48 respondents.
