Inventory (CCAI)
(Kelley, C. & J. Meyers,
1987)
Instructions
The purpose of this inventory
is to help you assess
your ability to adapt to
living in another culture and
to interact effectively with
people from different cultures.
Read each statement carefully
and choose the response that
best describes you right now.
Indicate your response by
circling the appropriate abbreviation
to the right of the
statement. For example, if you
think a statement “tends to
be true”
br>about you, circle ‘TT’ next
to that statement. Some items
may sound very similar. Don’t
worry about being perfectly
consistent in your answers. Just
choose the most appropriate
response for each item.
