Values & Attitude Assessment (VAA)
The Values & Attitude Assessment (VAA) helps organizations understand how well individuals align with the values, behavioral expectations, and cultural vision of the workplace.
While skills and experience determine whether someone can do a job, values and attitudes influence how they do it—how they collaborate, respond to challenges, and grow within the organization. VAA provides structured insight into these deeper drivers, supporting better hiring, development, and long-term workplace harmony.
Overview
VAA evaluates alignment between individual values, workplace attitudes, and organizational expectations.
Purpose
Designed to support value-aligned hiring and development, the VAA helps organizations assess whether individuals are likely to integrate positively into the workplace culture and contribute constructively over time.
- Values-aligned hiring decisions
- Cultural integration and onboarding
- Engagement and attitude risk analysis
What It Evaluates
The assessment evaluates two critical components that shape workplace behavior: values and attitudes—together influencing daily conduct, collaboration, and long-term performance.
- Core workplace values
- Positive and negative workplace attitudes
- Behavioral alignment and consistency
Scientific Foundation
Reliability
The Values section demonstrated strong internal consistency, with Cronbach’s alpha coefficients ranging from 0.78 to 0.87 across three domains and five personal value subscales. Split-half reliability ranged from 0.74 to 0.85, confirming internal stability. All coefficients were statistically significant (p < 0.01 and p < 0.005).
Attitude Reliability
The Attitude section is structured into Positive and Negative Attitudes. Positive Attitudes include six dimensions with internal consistency ranging from 0.6 to 0.8. Negative Attitudes also include six dimensions, with Cronbach’s alpha values between 0.7 and 0.85.
Validity
Content validity was established through expert ratings. The Values section achieved a mean Content Validity Ratio (CVR) of 0.82. For the Attitude section, only items with CVI values of 0.8 and above were retained, ensuring strong psychometric quality.
Norms & Interpretation
Norms were established using standardized Z-scores and T-scores derived from normative samples. These standardized scores allow meaningful comparison and interpretation across diverse occupational groups.
Results are presented as alignment indicators rather than judgments—highlighting strengths, risks, and development areas related to values and attitudes that influence workplace behavior and culture.
