Parental Locus of Control and the Assessment of Children's Personality Characteristics.
Ollendick, Duane G.
Journal of Personality Assessment, v43 n4 p401-05 Aug 1979
A study of fourth graders and their parents was conducted to determine the relationship between parents' locus of control and their children's locus of control, anxiety, intelligence, achievement, and behavioral adjustment. The relationship between mothers' locus of control and children's characteristics was more consistent than between fathers and children. (MH)
