Abstract
Relationships with personality dimensions previously obtained with the Rotter I-E scale were compared with those gathered with a new scale, the adult form of the Nowicki-Strickland locus of control scale (ANSIE). Results indicated that the ANSIE and the Rotter scales were similarly related to personality needs. It was concluded that these results promote further validity for the ANSIE measure and support the use of parallel child and adult forms when a wide range of Ss is investigated either longitudinally or cross-sectionally.Keywords
