Journal of Educational Psychology, v81 n3 p362-70 Sep 1989
Students (N=340) at the University of Manitoba (Canada) with internal and external loci of control (LOC) received no training or received either contingent or non-contingent feedback. Student achievement and achievement attributions were measured against variations in expressiveness in a videotaped lecture. Training and LOC influenced students' responses to the lecture. (TJH)
