This study investigated the dimensions of Rotter's internal-external control construct in 92 male and 108 female undergraduate college students. The findings contrast with others in that a sex difference in factor structure was observed. The confounding effects of the I-E inventory were brought into focus in viewing causality from a four element framework, as suggested by attribution theorists, as opposed to a two element causal model, assumed by Rotter
