Locus of control
Locus of control
 What is locus of control?
Locus of control is the extent to which you feel in control of the events that
influence your life
EXAMPLE:
students with an internal locus of control might blame poor grades on their
failure to study, whereas students with an external locus of control may blame
an unfair teacher or test for their poor performance
TYPES OF LOCUS OF CONTROL:
i) Internal locus
ii) External locus
Internal and external locus
Locus of control role play in our life
Locus of Control is considered to be an important aspect of personality. The concept was
developed originally Julian Rotter in the 1950s (Rotter, 1966). Locus of Control refers to an
individual's perception about the underlying main causes of events in his/her life.
Our locus of control influences our response to events in our lives and our motivation to take
action. If you believe that you hold the keys to your fate, you are more likely to change your
situation when needed.
Do you have internal and external locus
of control
If you believe that you have control over what happens, then you have what
psychologists refer to as an internal locus of control,”
Cherry says. “If you believe that you have no control over what happens and that
external variables are to blame, then you have what is known as an external locus
of control.”
