Abstract

Significant negative correlations (—.60, —28, —.36) were found between Drinking-related Locus of Control scores and semiannual intoxication rates in three different samples totalling 177 subjects. Persons reporting more perceived control over both intrapersonal and interpersonal pressures to drink (internal scorers) became reliably less intoxicated from alcohol during a 6-mo. period than people reporting less control (external scorers).
