Abstract In today's rapidly changing world, professional adjustment is crucial for individuals to thrive in their careers. For teachers, professional adjustment is vital for effective teaching and student outcomes. This study aimed to develop and standardize the Inventory of Teachers' Professional Adjustment (ITPA), a tool designed to assess teachers' professional adjustment. The ITPA consists of 32 items, categorized into four dimensions: Job Satisfaction, Professional Relationship, Adjustment to the Institution (School), and Professional Development. The tool's reliability was established through Cronbach’s alpha (0.806) and Spearman-Brown's reliability coefficient (0.771). Content and face validity were established through experts and teachers’ feedback and criticisms. A systematic procedure was followed, involving pilot studies, item analysis, and final tryouts. Norms for interpretation were established using standardized (Z) scores. The ITPA provides a valuable framework for educators, administrators, and policymakers to assess and enhance teachers' professional adjustment. This study contributes to the field of educational psychology by providing a reliable and valid tool for measuring teachers' professional adjustment. The ITPA is relevant for teacher development, educational policy, and student outcomes. Future research may focus on verifying the tool's generalizability across diverse educational settings and exploring additional constructs related to teachers' professional adjustment.
