A total of 107 academically talented high school students was administered the Multidimensional-Multiattributional Causality Scale (MMCS) and the Mathematics Attribution Scale (MAS). The MMCS subscales which assessed the attributions of success and failure in school to effort and ability were significantly correlated with the MAS subscales which were purported to assess similar constructs. The correlational findings provided limited support for the convergent validity of these measures
