Usage notes & scoring

Reliability was very high and identical across both studies (α = .97; Burchett, Murtha, and Kohli 2023, web appendix, p. 19). The authors created the scale based on a conceptual definition of cross-selling from earlier sales-management research rather than reusing an existing item set.
