WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

ISADA Method Test

deviant behavior instability occupational psychology

This instrument is designed to support rapid screening for risk-related and norm-violating behavior tendencies in military contexts. The ISADA Method is intended to provide preliminary indicators that may warrant further clinical interview or follow-up assessment.

The measure includes 60 items and typically requires about 11 minutes to complete. Item responses are used to characterize patterns associated with behavioral dysregulation (e.g., rule-breaking propensity, aggressive or irresponsible tendencies) and other factors that may contribute to disciplinary problems.

The ISADA Method may be used in initial psychological screening and periodic monitoring to inform referral decisions and targeted preventive interventions. Authors: Albert Bandura; Edwin A. Locke.
