Abstract

Adversity intelligence and adversity quotient is the critical ability and robust predictor of a person’s success. However, no consensus and generalized instrument have been established. Hence, the study aims to assess the methodological quality and measurement features of the existing tools for adversity intelligence by identifying and evaluating the instruments following the consensus-based standards for selecting health measurement instruments (COSMIN) checklist. From 255 research studies, six tools were eligible by a systematic review of online databases and books. For three or more of the nine COSMIN criteria, only two of the instruments had strong to moderate levels of evidence. Meanwhile, none of the instruments met any of the criteria. These results demonstrate that no single instrument outperforms all others in all circumstances. Tools that will be refined in the future should capture the development, methodology, and quality during the development of the instrument and achieve a high measurement quality and a generalized tool of measuring adversity intelligence.

Highlights

  • Dealing with adversity is an essential ability in one’s life

  • The consensus-based standards for selecting health measurement instruments (COSMIN) checklist helps separate the evaluation of the methodology quality of a study to develop an instrument

  • The criteria in the COSMIN checklist are produced by the Delphi method, which is a valuable tool for evaluating the methodological quality of a study on the measurements properties of an instrument, not for assessing the quality of the instrument itself

Summary

Introduction

Dealing with adversity is an essential ability in one’s life. The GBD 2017 Disease and Injury Incidence and Prevalence Collaborators reported that more than 264 million people of all ages suffer from depression globally. It means that many people have the relatively low ability in the face of setbacks and adversity. This ability does have the necessary capacity to maintain mental health and success in life. Adversity intelligence and adversity quotient must be got more attention and can be measured
