The Internal-External Control scale, Interpersonal Trust scale, and an assessment of the Motive To Avoid Success were administered to 86 undergraduate women. As expected, external and low trust scores covaried with comparatively high levels of achievement-related anxiety. The results were interpreted in terms of possible repression tendencies of internal subjects and the defensive properties inherent in the external and low trust belief systems.
对86名本科女生进行了内控外控量表、人际信任量表以及对避免成功动机的评估。正如预期的那样，外控得分和低信任得分与相对较高水平的成就相关焦虑同时出现。研究结果从内控者可能存在的压抑倾向以及外控和低信任信念体系中固有的防御特性方面进行了解释。
