Convergent Validity of the Multidimensional-Multiattributional Causality Scale with the Mathematics Attribution Scale.

Powers, Stephen; And Others

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v45 n3 p689-92 Aut 1985

The Multidimensional-Multiattributional Causality Scale and the Mathematics Attribution Scale were administered to 107 gifted high school students. Both scales' assessments of the attribution of school success and failure to effort and ability were significantly correlated. Limited support for their convergent validity was indicated.
