The objective of this study was to determine whether there were differences among extreme right, centre and extreme left oriented students in terms of machiavellianism, social responsibility, locus of control and intolerance of ambiguity. The following scales were used to measure these variables respectively; Machiavellianism (Christie and others, 1969), Social Responsibility (Berkowitz ve Lutterman, 1968), Locus of Control (Rotter, 1966) and Intolerance of Ambiguity (Martin ve Westie, 1959). All of these scales were administered to 150 university students of whom 50 represented extreme right , 50 extreme left and remaining 50 central political orientations. Data gathered with these scales were analized. The results showed that there were some differences between the subject grups in terms of the constructs at hand. Social responsibility, intolerance of ambiguity and machiavellianism levels of the extreem right group were higher than those of the extreemleft. Furthermore extreme right and centre oriented students were more external than those with extreme left political orientation
