Furthermore, invalid indicators are removed from the testing process. After all the research indicators are declared valid and reliable, then proceed with multiple linear regression testing.

Sedangkan untuk menguji reliabilitas digunakan alpha cronbach. Dari hasil uji validitas pertama, tampak bahwa ada beberapa indikator penelitian yang tidak valid. Selain itu, indikator yang tidak valid dihapus dari proses pengujian. Setelah semua indikator penelitian dinyatakan valid dan dapat diandalkan, maka dilanjutkan dengan pengujian koefisien regresi linier berganda.
