T. Adeyemibello, TEST OF THE PERFORMANCE IMPLICATIONS OF LOCUS OF CONTROL AND TASK ORIENTATION IN THE NOT-FOR-PROFIT SECTOR, Psychological reports, 73(3), 1993, pp. 1327-1330
The effects of locus of control and task orientation on performance we
re examined for 29 Southern Baptist ministers. The Leadership Style Qu
estionnaire and Rotter's scale measured task orientation and locus of
control, respectively. Multiple-regression analysis indicated that the
pastors with internal locus of control and high task orientation were
more likely to have growing parishes.
