What this blank adaptation measures
This blank adaptation test estimates self-reported cognitive adaptation flexibility habits patterns across four domains. Twenty-two original agree-disagree items group into flexible thinking, routine shifts, problem pivots, calm resets. Each item also maps to a fear-of-intimacy stack layer.
