career transitions inventory  

Definition

  • The Career Transitions Inventory (CTI) is a 40-item Likert format measure designed to assess an individual's internal process variables that may serve as strengths or barriers when making a career transition. For purposes of this instrument, the term career transition was defined as a situation in which any of the following kinds of career changes were being considered: (a) task change—a shift from one set of tasks to another set of tasks within the same job and same location (e.g., a software designer changes into software sales), (b) position change—a shift in jobs, with the same employer or a different employer (e.g., a secretary moving to a different department within the same company), or (c) occupational change—a transition from one set of duties to a different set that might include a new work setting (e.g., a farmer becomes a factory worker).
