Are Kibbutz Children Different From City Children in Locus of Control, Anxiety, and Persistence?

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The kibbutz (“kibbutzim” is the plural form) in Israel has a unique child‐rearing system where children are reared primarily by a “caretaker” during both day and night. Previously, the method of investigating this unique rearing method consisted mainly of observation and surveys. Only rarely were psychometric methods applied. The purpose of the current study was to measure several personality traits of kibbutz children and to compare them to those of similar children in the city through the application of standardized questionnaires. 1993 American Counseling Association
