Abstract: This research delves into the validation of the Indonesian version of the Career Adaptabilities Scale (CAAS), with a particular focus on young Indonesians aged 10 to 24 years. The original CAAS, already translated into various languages, required thorough validation for effective use among Indonesian youth. By employing Rasch analysis and involving 1953 adolescents (Mean Age = 17.2, Standard Deviation = 2.61) from 20 provinces in Indonesia, the study tested the scale’s relevance to this demographic. The findings confirmed the suitability of all original CAAS items for Indonesian young people, leading to the validation of the ID-CAAS. This adaptation represents a significant advancement in assessing and fostering career adaptability in Indonesian youth, with the adaptation tailored to their unique cultural and career aspirations.
