Children's Locus-of-Control Scales: A Reappraisal of Reliability Characteristics.
Halpin, Bruce M.; Ottinger, Donald R.
Child Development, v54 n2 p484-87 Apr 1983
Attempts to reevaluate the reliability characteristics of two scales used frequently in studies of children's locus of control; the Bialer scale and the Nowicki-Strickland scale. The study replicated and expanded upon earlier research by examining a wider range of grade levels and measures of children's locus of control expectancies. (Author/RH)
