Four experimental conflict situations having theoretical implications have been reported upon with some frequency.

Children differing in locus of control orientation (internals, mediums, and externals) were administered an extended coding task following either a fictional rationale for the study (purpose incentive statement) or no purpose. Implications of these findings for education and child-rearing are discussed. (Editor/RK)

Kukla, Andy – Journal of Research in Personality, 1974
Data confirmed Kukla's attributional theory of performance. When a task is perceived to be difficult, high resultant achievers perform better than low resultant achievers, whereas the low motive group proves to be superior to the high group when the task is perceived as easy. (Author/RK)

Reanalysis of previously published data suggests the Defense Mechanism Inventory can yield a composite measure of reaction to frustration by contrasting linearly the defenses Turning-against-object and Projection against those of Principalization and Reversal-of-affect. Factor-analytic and correlational data support the exclusion of…
