This sudy was designed to determine the relationship of Locus of Control to undecide college students' satisfaction with a self-administered vocational counseling treatment. It was predicted that internally oriented students would be more satisfied with the self-administered, while etxternally oriented students would be more satisfied with a counselor-mediated treatment. A sample of 160 students was given the Rotter Internal-External Scale, alternately the Self-Directed Search (SDS) or Vocational Preference Inventary (VPI), and previously used satisfaction questionnaire. No significant relationship was founded between Locus of Control and students' level of satisfaction with either treatment. These findings suggest that Locus of Control is not a discriminating variable mediating satisfactions with a self-administered or an interview-oriented vocational counseling treatment.
