Locus of Control and Levels of Aspiration in Black and White Children
DuCette, Joseph; Wolk, Stephen
Review of Educational Research, 42, 4, 493-504, F 72

By measuring an individual difference variable in different social milieus, it was found that the variable made strikingly different predictions in different settings. (Author/JB)
