Notes on this implementation

Items and response anchors verified verbatim against the published Table 1 (Hirschi, Freund & Herrmann, 2014, Journal of Career Assessment, 22(4), 575-594). Stem and anchors match the English wording given in the Table 1 footnote: '(1) almost never; (2) occasionally; (3) a moderate amount; (4) quite often; (5) very often.' Score is the mean of all 9 items (range 1-5). The paper validates only a single-factor structure; do not break out subscales.
