The Person-Situation Issue. Endler's Rejection of Alker's Specificity-Consistency Claim Once More.
Nygard, Roald
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v23 n4 p185-98 1979
After different conceptualizations of behavior in terms of personal and situational variables have been outlined, Endler's arguments on situational specificity are discussed and his data found not to warrant his conclusions. It is argued that there is no antagonism between interactionism and conditioned situationism or personologism. (Author/SJL)
