Fifty undergraduate psychology students (11 males, 39 females) comprised the sample used in the present study. The scores derived from the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory (SEI), Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS), Slosson Intelligence Test (SIT), and Rotter's Internal-External Locus of Control (LOC) Scale were analyzed by using the Pearson product-moment correlation technique. Significant correlations were obtained between scores on the following instruments: SIT and LOC, LOC and TSCS, LOC and SEI, and SEI and TSCS. Additionally, both race (white or black) and SIT scores and age and LOC scores were significantly correlated.
