Correlations between irrationality as measured by the Common Belief Survey, and locus of control, as measured by Levenson's locus of control scale, were small though significant among 49 male and 89 female college students. The Common Belief Survey was also correlated with sex. The need for further validation of the Common Belief Survey was discussed.

51 male and 45 female college students were given Rotter's I-E questionnaire and then allowed to volunteer to earn extra credit by attempting either a task for which supposedly skill determined outcome or one for which outcome supposedly was governed by chance. There was a significant correlation between I-E score and number of choices of skilled task. There was a non-significant difference between males' and females' I-E scores. An initially significant difference between males' and females' number of skill choices disappeared when the effect of differences in I-E scores was removed through analysis of covariance. Non-volunteers scored significantly more external than volunteers.
