Ethnic Differences in Beliefs About Control
Kinder, Donald L.; Reeder, Leo G.
Sociometry, 38, 2, 261-72, Jun 75
Rotters' internal external scale failed to demonstrate adequate degrees of interval consistency for Blacks. The unreliability of the dimension among Blacks was pervasive. Such unrealiability was specific to Blacks: there was satisfactory internal consistency for Anglos and Chicanos. The theoretical and methodological implications of these findings are discussed.
