The Normative and Structural Properties of the Children's Nowicki-Strickland Scale of Internal-External Control: Children with Adjustment Problems.

Psychology in the Schools, v16 n1 p32-37 1979

A group of 135 children with adjustment problems, referred to a semiresidential educational setting, were evaluated using the Children's Nowicki-Strickland Scale of Internal-External Control. Pretest scores were factor-analyzed, revealing two correlated factors: general feelings of helplessness in interpersonal relationships, and general feelings of lack of control over events or problems.
