- W66375980 abstract "MF-$0.83 HC-$1.67 Plus Postage. Achievement Need; Adults; *College Students; Experimental Psychology; *Goal Orientation; *Locus of Control; *Mentally Handicapped; objectives; *Performance Factors; Psychologi:al Characteristics; Psychological Studies;.*Task Performance One experiment investigated the relationship of goal setting and locus of control tb the work performance of mentally retarded adults and a second.experiment. was a semi-replication study done on college adults. Two main effects were stadied: (1) Method of goal setting (whether a worker set his own goal, had a goal set by a supervisor, or simply observe'd his own production without setting a goal) ; al0 (2) locus of control (whether the subject's locus c.:.f control was internal or external). In the first experiment, 48 mentally retarded workers completed a simple task. Setting goals as opposed to not having goals.did make a positive difference in production, but it seemed immaterial whether the individual or the supervisor set the goal. Locus of control made no significant differencer A second study was conducted on college students, with the expectation that subjects of higher intelligence _would show differenceg-When setting their own goals as opposed to having goals set for them. 'When 64 university students performed a simple clerical task, neither goal setting nor locus of control seemed to affect performance. The failure to get this result with the college students , and the-limited effect with the retarded subjects suggest that whether goal setting does or does not improve performance is a function of several factors, including difficulty of task and environMental conditions, and that the relationship between locus of control and work performance is more Complex than had previously been thought.
