Summary Forty male and 40 female American university students, assessed for individual differences in locus of control (LC) beliefs, selected and performed either skill or chance-determined tasks that varied in probability of success. Behavioral risk indexes revealed several sex differences, among them riskier preferences by men than women under chance conditions. Person-situation LC combination interactions were found for probability preference variability and outcome-contingent preference shifts. Attribution and task informativeness ratings indicated evidence of greater concern over outcomes in chance situations by persons with external control beliefs.
