Locus of Control in Relation to Academic Attitudes and Performance in a Personalized System of Instruction Course
Keller, John M.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, 70, 3, 414-21, Jun 78
Rotter's Internal-External Locus of Control Scale (I-E) and the Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes were administered to 138 undergraduate students in a personalized system of instruction course. Results indicated that the I-E scale is related only to academic attitudes and that study habits are related to two measures of performance. (Author/JAC)
