Abstract: | Developed 2 measures based on G. A. Kelly's Rep Grid Test, one dealing with personal events and the other with general societal events. Results from 258 undergraduates show that internals used significantly more internal constructs than did externals and that Ss chose more internal constructs on the personal than on the societal measure. Results suggest that the internal-external dichotomy is reflected in and may be mediated by modes of thinking and categorization. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
