  • Title: Gender, ethnic group, and homelessness as predictors of locus of control among job training participants.
    Author: Wenzel SL.
    Journal: J Soc Psychol; 1993 Aug; 133(4):495-505. PubMed ID: 8231127.
    Abstract:
    The effect of gender, ethnicity, and homelessness on the locus of control orientations of 113 participants in a job training program in the United States was investigated. It was expected that homeless women of color (Black and Hispanic) would have the strongest perception that powerful others influenced their lives. The Black participants tended to believe more strongly in the influence of chance and powerful others than the White participants did.
