Tap Into The Powerful CernySmith Adjustment Index™
The CernySmith Adjustment Index™ ( CSAI™) is a powerful new screening instrument for improving field retention by evaluating and enhancing cross-cultural adjustment.
This well researched instrument was normed on a sample of 1133 cross-cultural workers in 130 host countries from 46 home countries. The CSAI™ contains 97 questions and takes about 15 to 20 minutes to complete. It is appropriate for any person living cross-culturally more than 30 days.
Participants can select the version of the instrument, which is most closely related to their unique area of cross-cultural service.
- Business/Corporate (CSAI-BC) - for business personnel and their adult family members.
- Humanitarian (CSAI-H) – For adult humanitarian workers and adult members of their families.
- Student (CSAI-S) – For students age 15 and above.
- Team Report – A group management report analyzing the average scores of a team of 10 or a team of up to 110 workers and/or their families.
