Abstrakt     The author states the differences in the experiencing of the locus of control in two groups of the wives of alcoholics: in the first one, the husbands participate in alcoholism treatment program (in which the wives participate as well); the women from the second group seek treatment for themselves, while their husbands do not participate in any kind of treatment. By means of Rotter's I-E test, Beck Depression Inventory and a semi-structured psychiatric interview, significant differences between the two groups, regarding the experiencing of the locus of control, the severity of depression and personal growth of subjects, were revealed. In the group of depressed women, seeking treatment for their problems, the experiencing of the locus of control is significantly more external, than in the group of wives who participate in their husbands treatment. Some differences in the personal growth of the subjects lead us to assume that the experiencing of the locus of control is a stable personality dimension, significantly shaping the behavior and reactions in stressful situations. In the group with the external locus of control, the behavior pattern in crisis situation is characterized by feelings of helplessness, passivity, and depression, while in the group with the internal locus of control active confrontation and problem solving behavior prevails.
