WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Assessment of Personality Adaptation Status, OSADA Test

Personality Adaptation Status Assessment Test

This measure is used to screen perceived stress tolerance and adaptation to changing demands. The Personality Adaptation Status Assessment is intended to support identification of individuals who may be experiencing adjustment difficulties and reduced life satisfaction. Berry is cited as the author.

The instrument includes 30 items and typically requires about 6 minutes to complete. Responses provide an estimate of current adaptation status, with results commonly used to guide follow-up assessment, supportive interventions, or monitoring in occupational or other applied settings. The Personality Adaptation Status Assessment is not a stand-alone diagnostic tool and should be interpreted in the context of clinical history and other relevant data.
