Interaction of Locus of Control, Skill vs Chance Instructions, and Task Difficulty
Previous studies on locus of control and instructions have been interpreted to support the position of either a social learning theory or an anxiety. 144 college students were separated into locus of control categories based on scores on Rotter's I-E Scale and randomly assigned to receive skill or chance instructions and one of three anagram tasks of varying levels of difficulty. Primary dependent variables were number of correct anagrams and lat…
Reinforcement Strategies for Token Economies in a Special Classroom Setting
Both academic and disruptive behavior in a classroom for children with behavioral problems were monitored under two different pro-cedures for administering token reinforcement. Behavioral control was dem-onstrated when children were reinforced on a variable interval schedule for “in-seat” behavior and also when they were reinforced for correct performance on daily tests. Academic performance was enhanced in the latter but not the former condition…
Correlations between the Wais and Revised Beta, Wechsler Memory Scale and Quick Test in a Vocational Rehabilitation Center
A correlational analysis of the Revised Beta, the Wechsler Memory Scale, and the Ammons' Quick Test (Forms 1, 2, 3) with 30 clients from a vocational rehabilitation center yielded correlations with the WAIS of .83, .80, and .84 respectively. For a retarded subgroup of 16 Ss only the Wechsler Memory Scale was significantly correlated with WAIS IQ ( R = .61). The Revised Beta correlation of .37 suggested this test may be less reliable when used wit…
