Abstract
In this paper, we studied the influence of the features of the ASQ testing procedure on the indicators of consistency of internality scales. The study involved 149 students who completed the ASQ and locus of control questionary . The analysis focused on controlling for two sources of variation in internality estimates. The first source was related to the formulation of the cause, and the second – to its assessment. All responses formulated by the subjects were grouped and then compared in dimensions of internality, stability and globality. As a result, highly significant differences in internality were revealed for all 12 items of the questionnaire, which indicates that the sources of response variability to the greatest extent will affect the subsequent assessment in this parameter. The most acceptable psychometric scores were obtained for the Achievement Success Scale. For other scales of internality of this level, low values of internal consistency were obtained.
