Abstract

Female university students (N = 191) categorized as users of risky or safe contraceptives were compared on the following personality measures: Rotter's Internal-External Scale, Cantril's Self-Anchoring Striving Scale, Rosen's Value Orientation Scale, and Srole's Anomie Scale. Safe contraceptors had significantly higher levels of striving for the present and for five years hence than risky contraceptors. There were no significant differences between the two groups on the remaining measures.
