Hello,
Can someone please help me find where I would locate/run Cronbach's Alpha in SAS - I am using the Academic on Demand version so no programming, all i can find is code about how to calculate it - not sure if there is a book anywhere on how to run analysis using SAS - completely new and any help apprecaited.

A google search for "sas cronbach 9.4" yields a number of relevant links ,including:
PROC CORR Statement :: Base SAS(R) Procedures Guide ...
The "9.4" is to get the doc's for the latest version of SAS.

The hash OUTPUT method will overwrite a SAS data set, but not append. That can be costly. Consider voting for Add a HASH object method which would append a hash object to an existing SAS data set
Would enabling PROC SORT to simultaneously output multiple datasets be useful? Then vote for
Allow PROC SORT to output multiple datasets

You certainly don't have to code the calculations needed for Cronbach's Alpha.
But you do have to:
- Prepare a SAS dataset to be submitted to PROC CORR. Of course this is required prior to doing any statistical computation.
- Tell SAS to run PROC CORR on your data, including the ALPHA option. For information on that take a look at the link I provided (PROC CORR Statement ... ). Go to the "Examples", tab and choose " Computing Cronbach’s Coefficient Alpha" example. It's only about seven lines.
