Item Career adapt-abilities scale in Ghana: Psychometric properties and associations with individual-level ambidexterity and employees’ service performance(Current Psychology, 2019-08-13) Abdul-Nasiru, I.; Affum-Osei, E.; Antwi, C.O.; Asante, E.A.; Aboagye, M.O.This study examined the psychometric properties of the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) in Ghana and its associations with individual-level ambidexterity and employees’ service performance. The CAAS International-Form constitutes four sub-scales, each with six items, which measure career concern, career control, career curiosity, and career confidence as self-regulatory resources that could help individuals to effectively manage occupational transitions, developmental tasks, and work roles. We hypothesized that career adaptability relates positively to the two outcomes. We tested the internal consistency, factor structure, and the hypotheses with 443 service representatives in Ghana. Results indicated that the overall CAAS score and sub-scales were good and reliable. The factor structure was identical to that of the CAAS International-Form. As expected, career adaptability positively related to individual-level ambidexterity and employees’ service performance. These findings provide insights for research and career development.Item Career adapt-abilities scale in Ghana: Psychometric properties and associations with individual-level ambidexterity and employees’ service performance(Current Psychology, 2021) Affum-Osei, E.; Antwi, C.O.; Abdul-Nasiru, I.; Asante, E.A.; Aboagye, M.O.; Forkouh, S.K.This study examined the psychometric properties of the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) in Ghana and its associations with individual-level ambidexterity and employees’ service performance.
