We offer three Computerized Stress Inventory (CSI) assessment instruments: the Comprehensive CSI, the Brief CSI and the Quick CSI. Each CSI assessment: asks respondents to answer a series of questions about the degree to which they are experiencing various aspects of their lives as stressful and/or satisfying, and the extent to which they perceive themselves as able to easily make changes; gives respondents a confidential profile of their own levels of stress, satisfactions and well-being; makes suggestions for reducing stress and enhancing well- being; encourages respondents to make positive life-style changes.
The Comprehensive CSI assesses over 30 life-style areas. This 400+ item assessment then generates a 16-page individualized profile plus graph, which can be the basis for discussion with a professional or can be given to the respondent without interpretation. The 30+ scales have high reliability as well as impressive face, content, empirical and construct validity. Normed on a national sample of over 1500 respondents, the CSI is designed for people 18 and older. This 60-minute assessment can be computer-administered or responses from the 19-page written questionnaire can be entered by an operator in approximately 4 minutes. The Brief CSI. The Brief CSI assesses 16 life-style areas. This 115-item assessment then generates an 8-page individualized profile plus graph, which can be the basis for discussion with a professional or can be given to the respondent without interpretation. The scales and items were chosen from the Comprehensive CSI using item-analysis and factor analysis. The resultant scales have high internal and test-retest reliability as well as impressive face, empirical and construct validity. Normed on a national sample of over 3500 respondents, the Brief CSI is designed for people 18 and older. This 20-minute assessment can be computer-administered or responses from the 6- page written questionnaire can be entered by an operator in approximately 90 seconds. The Quick CSI: 18+ (for ages 18+). The Quick CSI is an efficient and extremely fast screening instrument that measures a person's satisfactions and sources of stress. It assesses 11 major sources of life satisfaction and stress, the extent of recent shifts in life satisfaction and stress level, and the ability to make life-style changes. This 30-item assessment then generates a very informative but compact 2-page individualized profile plus graph, which can be the basis for discussion with a professional or can be given to the respondent without interpretation. The 3 scales have high reliability as well as impressive face, content, empirical and construct validity. Normed on parts of the national samples for the Brief and Comprehensive CSIs as well as a new sample of 300+ respondents, the Quick CSI is designed for people 18 and older. This 5-minute assessment can be computer-administered or responses from the 2-page written questionnaire can be entered by an operator in approximately 25 seconds. The Quick CSI: 14-18 (for ages 14-18). The Quick CSI as described above, modified for teen-agers. Normed on a sample of 250+ high school students. Special CSI Features.
