Scott, Donald P.; Severance, Laurence – 1972
Rotter's Internal-External (I-E) locus of control scale, the MMPI, and the CPI were administered to 100 males in a nonacademic environment. Relationships between I-E and the other measures were examined: a sizeable amount of the variance in I-E scores was accounted for by MMPI and CPI scales, but a discriminant analysis failed to enable reliable…

Dille, Brian; Mezack, Michael – American Journal of Distance Education, 1991
Describes a study that was conducted to identify predictors of high-risk students enrolled in telecourses at a community college. The use of Rotter's Internal-External Locus of Control Scale (RIELC) and Kolb's Learning Style Inventory (LSI) are explained, hypotheses tested are discussed, and demographic variables are examined. (seven references)…

Santiago, Rowena S.; Okey, James R. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1992
Describes a study of undergraduate preservice teachers that investigated three types of advisement--adaptive, evaluative, and combined--and their effects in learner-controlled computer-based instruction for learners with varying locus of control orientations. Posttest results are reported, and it is concluded that there is no significant…
