| Popis: | The Internal Control Index of Duttweiler was administered to 85 college students and scores were analyzed to study the psychometric properties of the instrument. Descriptive statistics were similar to those reported for other college samples. An internal consistency (coefficient alpha) of .82 was found. An item analysis supported the use of a single total score as a psychometrically sound measure. Further use of the Internal Control Index across a variety of settings seems appropriate. |
