Predictive Efficiency

The predictive efficiency of the I-E scale and a specific locus of control measure were compared in a study of the risk-taking behavior of 160 subjects who participated in a novel task. Contrary to Rotter's (1975) predictions, the I-E scale did not demonstrate greater efficiency than the specific locus of control measure in predicting behavior on this novel task.
