The Science behind the AQ Assessment

The AQ Model is thoroughly grounded in psychology (specifically trait activation theory and a contingent behavior model) and recognizes that adaptability is the complex interplay between a person’s ability, character, and environment.

    • Employees have a unique preference and way they adapt, which is relatively stable and based on their character.
    • Nonetheless, the model recognizes that employees can build up their ability (via resources or skills) to adapt more effectively.
    • Moreover, the environment (for example, support in the workplace, or emotional health) boosts or limits how and when employees adapt.
