Ego Identity Status, Ego Development, and Locus of Control in College Women.

Ginsberg, Sheila D.; Orlofsky, Jacob L.

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v10 n4 p297-307 Aug 1981

The relationship of identity status to ego development and locus of control in college women was examined. Identity statuses did not differ significantly in self-reported locus of control, but did differ on the "depth" measure of ego development. Identity achievers were more advanced in ego development.
