Adams, Gerald R.; Shea, Judy A.

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v8 n1 p81-89 Mar 1979

A comparison of identity status, locus of control, and ego stage development was completed using 294 college students. Identity achievement students were found to be more advanced in their ego stage development and level of internality, while diffusion students were less advanced. No evidence was found for intraindividual development. (Author/RD)
