SAMPLE QUESTIONS

Example Questions From the Test

You will be presented with a series of statements. For each statement, indicate whether you agree, disagree, or partially agree. Select one of the three response options that best reflects your opinion. Do not spend much time thinking about your answers. Provide the response that comes to mind first. Try to imagine the most typical situation that matches the meaning of the statement and, based on that, choose your answer. Avoid using intermediate responses such as “not sure,” “somewhere in between,” or “hard to say” too often. Respond as honestly as possible.

- Yes
- Not sure
- No
- Strained
- Uncertain
- Good
- Suits me
- Suits me partially
- Does not suit me

These are 3 of the 54 real questions — the rest appear in the test. No sign-up needed to start.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

Teacher Professional Adaptation Assessment Test - Description and methodology of the test

adaptation

arrange

job satisfaction

Teachers examining how well their professional setting supports them can use this questionnaire to reflect on work, relationships, and school conditions. The Teacher Professional Adaptation Assessment Test is intended for educators considering day-to-day adjustment and workplace experience. A teacher adaptation questionnaire can show which areas appear supportive and which deserve closer reflection.

What This Assessment Explores

This professional adjustment test for teachers covers scales.

Attitude Toward Work (0-12; Low engagement 0-4, Moderate engagement 5-8, High engagement 9-12); Professional Adaptation (0-96; Low adaptation 0-52, Moderate adaptation 53-80, High adaptation 81-96); Attitudes Toward Students (0-12; Low 0-4, Moderate 5-8, High 9-12); and Attitude Toward the Educational Institution (0-12; Low 0-4, Moderate 5-8, High 9-12) measure motivation, adaptation, empathy, belonging.
Attitudes Toward the Staff (0-12; Low integration 0-4, Moderate integration 5-8, High integration 9-12); and Relationships Among Teachers (0-12; Strained 0-4, Mixed 5-8, Supportive 9-12) measure collegiality, climate.
Attitude Toward the Supervisor (0-12; Low 0-4, Moderate 5-8, High 9-12); Satisfaction With Position in the Staff (0-12; Low satisfaction 0-4, Moderate satisfaction 5-8, High satisfaction 9-12); Satisfaction With Working Conditions (0-12; Low satisfaction 0-4, Moderate satisfaction 5-8, High satisfaction 9-12); and Lie Scale (0-6; Low 0-2, Moderate 3-4, High 5-6) show trust, recognition, comfort, candor.

Methodology and Evidence Base

Questions use short self-report statements and, in the presented items, three response choices such as yes/not sure/no, graded agreement, or suits me/suits me partially/does not suit me. They ask for judgments about work, relationships, and conditions rather than a performance task.

In practice, this school workplace adaptation questionnaire reports domain totals and an overall profile. The catalogue displays result bands, but individual point values and any reverse-keying are not specified here, so readers should use the shown totals rather than infer a scoring formula.

Its closest named source is the Teacher Socio-Psychological Adaptation Questionnaire (Dmitrieva). The questionnaire is conceptually consistent with that instrument; Budnikova (2018) and Kosina and Radkevich (2020) provide related context on teaching readiness and professional adaptation, but do not establish that this online version is identical, standardized, or validated by their samples.

This version has displayed categories but no stated normative sample or reliability estimates. Current workload, mood, self-awareness, and candor can affect self-report; the candor indicator may flag socially desirable responding, but it cannot confirm accuracy.
