The I-E Scale: Control of What?

Clark, Ruth Anne

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 44, 1, 15, Feb 76

This study examines the Rotter Internal-External locus of control Scale to determine if it differentiates people according to the degree of control they feel they have over behavior. The results support Rotter's claim that reinforcement value has to be taken into consideration in Locus of Control studies. (EJT)
