This measure is used to describe interpersonal orientation and social priorities in communication. The Interactive Orientation of Personality Assessment is intended to support a structured appraisal of how an individual approaches interaction with others and the values that guide social behavior. It is attributed to Michael J. Apter.
The instrument consists of 31 items and typically requires about 7 minutes to complete. Results are generally interpreted as an index of interpersonal orientation that may inform clinical, educational, or counseling formulation, particularly when considering social functioning and adjustment.
The Interactive Orientation of Personality Assessment should be integrated with collateral information (e.g., interview, behavioral observations, and other standardized measures) and interpreted within the individual’s developmental, cultural, and contextual background.
