What this assessment of adaptability measures
This assessment of adaptability estimates self-reported adaptability habits across four domains. Twenty-two original agree-disagree items group into change tolerance, plan revision, surprise stress, and learning agility. Each item also maps to a fear-of-intimacy stack layer. A second results chart inspired by FOIS-style intimacy avoidance themes from Descutner and Thelen (1991), adapted to this topic. Your adaptability index averages these patterns into a 0 to 100 score where higher numbers mean more endorsed adaptability habits on this screener, not a resilience diagnosis.
