An Academic Locus of Control Scale for College Students

Abstract

A 28-item true-false format test of beliefs in personal control over academic outcomes is described. The test has high test-retest reliability and scores significantly correlate with measures of generalized locus of control and achievement motivation. No social desirability response set was observed. The test was predictive of four out of five classroom achievement behaviors observed.
