Abstract

Based on career construction theory, we conducted a cross-cultural validation study of the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale–Short Form (CAAS-SF) proposed by Maggiori, Rossier, and Savickas across three sample groups (college students, civil servants, and enterprise employees) in the Chinese context. Results of the principal component analyses and confirmatory factor analyses suggested a four-factor solution and confirmed the hierarchical structure of the Chinese version of the CAAS-SF. In addition, this short form achieved satisfactory configural invariance, full metric invariance, and scalar invariance. These findings support the use of the CAAS-SF as a valid and reliable measure to assess career adaptability in China. Limitations and suggestions for future research are discussed.
