다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of internal-external locus of control on level of aspiration in Korean Children. The locus of control was measured by means of the Nowicki & Strickland`s A Locus of Control Scale for Children (1973). The level of aspiration was measured by Throw Balls into the Basket Game Sixty internal controlled children (30 girls and 30 boys) and 60 external controlled children (30 girls and 30 boys) were selected among 853 children in fifth grade. For the data analysis, two-way analysis of variance and t-test were applied, Pearson correlation coefficient was computed. The results of this study were as follows ; 1. Goal discrepancy score were significantly higher in the internal controlled children than in the external controlled children. 2. Shift value were significantly higher in the external controlled children than in the internal controlled children. 3. School achievement were significantly higher in the internal controlled children than in the external controlled children. 4. There was no significant difference in the school achievement between the children who showed high goal discrepancy score and the children who showed low one. 5. There was no significant difference in the locus of control between girls and boys. 6. Goal discrepancy score were significantly higher in boys than in girls, but there was no significant difference in the shift value between girls and boys.
