Locus of Control and Socialization.

Raine, Adrian; And Others

Journal of Research in Personality, v16 n2 p147-56 Jun 1982

Predicted that an external locus of control would characterize undersocialization. Tested this hypothesis on a random sample of secondary school children (N=97). Scores from the Child Nowicki-Strickland Internal-External Scale were found to predict undersocialization in the expected direction. Suggested several possible interpretations of this relationship.
