Research with the Locus of Control Construct
Author: Herbert M. LefcourtPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1483264211
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
Research with the Locus of Control Construct, Volume 3: Extensions and Limitations presents the extensions of use of the locus of control construct into areas far removed from the purview of the construct's originators and limitations of that usage. This book is divided into two parts. Part I describes the large number of investigations that have been conducted in each of three psychological domains—industrial psychology, psychophysiology, and cross-cultural psychology. Part II examines the question of the circumstances under which locus of control is a useful construct. This volume is recommended for psychologists and medical practitioners concerned with the locus of control contract.

Book Description
This research proposed that there are fundamental similarities among locus of control beliefs, which are important to social learning theory, and constructs in expectancy theory of work motivation. It was hypothesized that locus of control may impact expectancy theory in two ways: as direct causes of expectancy theory constructs and as boundary conditions for operation of an expectancy theory model. Hypotheses were evaluated by, first, operationalizing an expectancy theory model according to theoretical considerations and findings from other research. Then, with a successfully operationalized model, relationships among expectancy theory variables and locus of control were evaluated. A policy-capturing task was used to model characteristics of a military training situation and to derive values for expectancy theory variables. Within-subjects analyses evaluated the model for each subject, and between-subjects path analyses evaluated relationships with locus of control. The expectancy theory model predicted effort for the majority of subjects, but amount of variance accounted for varied widely among subjects. Path analyses confirmed several expected relationships, none of which were strong, and did not confirm others. There was no support for the hypothesis that locus of control serves as a boundary condition for expectancy theory.

Book Description
Teaching INTERNAL LOCUS OF CONTROL means teaching learners to become "Internals" to control their own lives more fully and successfully. When individuals become Internals they believe they have the will and the wherewithal to set achievable goals and accomplish them. In other words, they are empowered. INTERNALS are known to: (1) experience higher levels of well-being and engage in healthier behaviors; (2) be healthier and happier and live longer lives; and (3) exhibit superior cognitive functioning and display more motivation to complete tasks, perform well, and innovate. INTERNALS, who believe they control their lives, are also more successful in learning and academic achievement, at work, and in economic endeavors as a whole. They are typically more active, more effective in social and sociological situations, willingly take responsibility, and more likely to resist outside influences that can undermine personal moral behavior. That's why, for all these reasons and more, it pays to TEACH INTERNAL LOCUS OF CONTROL. Because the instruction techniques in this book have been validated in an extensive field evaluation, you can be sure that learning to teach the six-step behavioral strategy will be satisfying and rewarding. As you watch the lives of your learners undergo transformation and enhancement each and every time, you will be amazed at just how successful you and they will be when you. . . . . .
