1. I scored 8, which means I lean towards internal locus of control.

2. Yes, I believe Thais score is accurate. I tend to take responsibility for the things that happen in my life, and I believe that my effort and choices directly impact that.

3. EXTERNAL: feeling like I had no control over the fact that my job performance was impacted by workplace environment, feeling like relationships fail because of long distance, blaming poor weather for not feeling like finishing my work.

4. INTERNAL: taking full responsibility for my grades, taking it upon myself to improve in my job (aka playing the piano for 6 hours straight until I’m satisfied with the outcome), working hard and studying for exams in order to influence my knowledge.

I got a score of 20, and it is External locus. I think the score is mostly accurate because I believe some things are out of my control. Ex: external - 1. My science teacher gave us an 8 page assignment and I did it the night before and had to stay up late, I blamed it on the fact that it was 8 pages instead of taking responsibility and knowing she gave us 5 days to do it. 2. The other day I started work at 2:30 and my brother woke me up 3 minutes before I had to go. I blamed me waking up late on the fact that I worked late the previous day instead of knowing that If I had been productive with my morning I would not have fallen asleep. 3. I had to come early to school to hand in field trip money and the line was already very long, but we still got In line and waited. Eventually it was our turn and we got wait listed. We were a bit sad because we really wanted to go and we blamed it on the fact that some people skipped in line Instead of taking responsibility and knowing we should have gotten there earlier. Ex. internal - 1. I had a big test in science class and I spent the day before studying, and I did really good so my hard work paid off. 2. When I cooked dinner for me and my brother it turned out really good because I followed the directions and tried my best 3. I was starting to procrastinate my school work but I sat down and completed all my missing work and I’ve been on top of it since.

1) What was your score?  Indicate whether your results reflect an EXTERNAL or INTERNAL locus of control.

got a score of 11/23, meaning I have a slightly more internal locus of control.

2) Do you believe that this score is accurate?  WHY or WHY NOT? I would say my score was pretty accurate because I feel like I try my best to only let the things I can control concern me.

3) Identify 3 examples from your life when you have expereinced EXTERNAL Locus of Control.

• Blaming a test for being hard when I should have studied more

• Blaming cars infront of me for driving slow instead of worrying about my own speed

• Blaming the fact that I’m tired because school is early and not considering that I could go to sleep earlier

4) Identify 3 examples from your life when you have experienced INTERNAL Locus of Control.

• Studying for a test so I can be prepared to do my best

• Choosing to not let something out of my control affect me

• Managing my time so that I will not be late to commitments I have

1) My score was 7 which means that I have an internal locust of control.

2) I believe that this is accurate because I believe there is a lot that you can control and I don’t believe in luck.

3) 3 TIMES IN MY LIFE I HAVE EXPERIENCED EXTERNAL LOCUST OF CONTROL

Unable to do homework because the teacher didn’t give us the assignment

Some trips me and I hurt my knee

1. My score was a 12, which shows I’m an external locus of control.

2. I don’t believe this score is right because i tend to blame myself more than I blame outside forces.

3. One example of me experiencing external locus is that i didn't do homework because i wanted to play poker with my friends. Another example is when i was too tired to study for a test. The last example is when i didn’t want to practice because i was to tired.

4. One example of internal is when i blamed myself for missing a game winning shot in basketball. Another example is when i took accountably for missing a homework assignment and turned it in late. The last example is when i took accountability for missing my friends phone call when we had plans.

1) The score I received was an 11, and this score means that I have an External locus of control.

2) I think this score is correct under some circumstances. Sometimes I do try and blame other factors for what happened, but I usually understand why things happen based off of my actions.

3) some examples of external locus of control could be failing a test because i didn’t study and I blamed the teacher. Another one could be how I was really tired during a baseball game, and that’s why I didn’t play so well. The last one could be how I didn’t hang out with people because I feel really tired.

4) Doing work on time, showing up to practice early, and even sleeping a little bit early so I’m not tired for the following day.

1) I got a 15. This means that I have an external locus of control. 2)I believe that it is somewhat accurate there are times where I tend to blame externals factors for my own circumstances. 3) a. When I don’t study for a test and I get a bad grade there is times where I blame the teacher for my grade. b. When I have an attitude with others I sometimes blame the weather for making me feel that way. c. When I procrastinate on my work I blame that I don’t feel good on it. 4)a.When I get a good score on a test it is because I actually studied. b.When I get a new skill in gymnastics it is because I worked hard and conditioned. c. When I go in for extra help for my physics test and I receive a good grade.

I scored a 14 which means I have an external locus control, I do believe that this is accurate because I tend to blame other people for my problems.

EXTERNAL

1. When I was running late for work, I blame it on how bad the traffic was but I also did leave like 10 minutes later than I was supposed to.

2. When I get a bad grade on my math quizzes, I blame my teacher for not knowing how to teach when I really just wasn’t paying attention/not doing homework.

3. When I forgot to do my homework I blame it on having long hours at work, but I could’ve done my work during my study hall and not sleeping in.

INTERNAL

1. When I study for tests and do good, I get reminded that it’s because I actually worked hard.

2. When I had a misunderstanding with my friend I decided to apologize to her instead of getting angrier, making my decisions help our friendship.

3. When I started working out again after a while I felt a lot better physically and mentally.

# data[].attributes.body
1. My score was 8 which means that I have an internal locus of control.

2. I believe that this score is somewhat accurate because I think that I take responsibility for things that I feel that are in my control. But sometimes I think that things that happen in my life are also due to forces outside of my own

control.

External:

1. If I get a bad score on a project or essay, sometimes I think that I got that score because the teacher doesn’t like me and is being biased when grading.

2. If I get a good score on a test, sometimes I will think that the only reason I did good on that test was because it was an easy test, not because I studied for it.

3. If I do bad on a multiple choice test, I blame the fact that it is a multiple choice test and I don’t do well on those kinds of tests.

Internal:

1. Studying a lot for finals and getting a good grade on my finals because I prepared for it.

2. When I didn’t understand what was going on in class I met up with my teacher after school and that helped me understand what we were learning.

3. I write down the assignments that I have and when they are due and it helps me manage my time.

# data[].attributes.body
1. My score was 10 which means I reflect on External locus of control meaning i tend to believe in things like fate, luck and others people actions instead of my own efforts.

2. I think it’s accurate because i feel like my life is out of my control. Sometimes whatever happens, happens for a reason.

External

1. One time i got a bad grade in my Ap Environmental science test and i would blame the teacher because she doesn’t teach good. But instead i should’ve studied more.

2. When i applied to a college and didn’t get accepted. I blamed it on the school for being too competitive. But I should’ve put more effort on my college essay and SAT.

3. I was failing my math class so i asked for help and put in extra work time and finished my missing work.

# data[].attributes.body
I got a nine which is a score that indicates internal locus of control but close to be external. I think this is accurate because I do tend to take responsibility but I also am in the middle a bit.

External:

I have taken a test then did poorly on it. Most of the class got bad scores as well and we talked about how the test questions had nothing to do with the material we had learned.

I got an email from my grandma that asked for my Amazon account information and to send a $200 dollar gift card to her account. She had gotten scammed by another email and then it sent out this email to everyone in her contacts.

I’ve been picked up late from school by a parent. I couldn’t control this and it was irritating but I didn’t have any way to change what happened.

Internal:

I’ve done poorly on a test before. I expected it because I didn’t understand the questions and hadn’t studied the night before because I didn’t want to. I accepted the grade then when I retook it I studied more and was able to do better.

I got into a fight with a friend. Afterwards I thought about it and realized I had been in the wrong for the argument. I then apologized and we were able to move on.

I’ve been driving and been tailgating. While it was annoying I also was going slowly and knew the person was just trying to get me to speed up so I didn’t get angry at them.

1) What was your score? Indicate whether your results reflect an EXTERNAL or INTERNAL locus of control.

I got a score of seven, which I think is considered a low score. That means I have an Internal locus of control.

2) Do you believe that this score is accurate? WHY or WHY NOT?

I think that this is accurate because I believe that a lot of life’s consequences and happy moments is near directly caused by our own actions.

3) Identify 3 examples from your life when you have experienced EXTERNAL Locus of Control.

1. In 8th grade when I blamed my science teacher for a poor grade that I got on my quiz.

2. I procrastinated on assignments and said that it was because my family was being too loud for me to focus.

3. I didnt walk my dog because it was getting really late (it was 6:00).

4) Identify 3 examples from your life when you have experienced INTERNAL Locus of Control.

1. When I got my computer after years of working for money to purchase it.

2. I studied really hard for my freshman HWOC exam and I got a really good grade on it.

3. Me winning a family board game night because I used my skill and memory to beat my relatives.

# data[].attributes.body
1) I scored an 11, this reflects that I have more of an external lock of control.

2) I think this is accurate because I feel like I do use outside factors as an excuse for failures or when things don’t go my way.

3) External:

1. When I do bad on an exam and I see that many other people also did bad I blame the teacher for teaching the material poorly.

2. If I don’t get to do the things I want, like get somewhere early, I blame the people around me for getting in the way.

3. When I come to a class and get surprised that there was an assignment do and other people also were shocked to see something was due I blame the teacher for not letting us know ahead of time.

4) Internal:

1. If I get a good grade on an exam and my grade is well in the class I praise myself for being able to get things done and give myself credit.

2. When I spend all my money I own up to it and tell myself that I shouldn’t have spent it on what I spent it on.

3. If I see that people around me aren’t including people or helping others I would try my best to include and help them as best as I can.

# data[].attributes.body
1. My score was a 2, which shows an internal locus of control.

2. I think this is pretty accurate, but I am probably less internal than this shows.

3. I blamed being sick on not exercising, I have skipped homework when tired, and I have asked for extensions when I should have finished work on time.

4. I have done my work on time, gone to practice early to get better, and did well on a test and gave myself props for studying.

# data[].attributes.body
My score on the Locus of Control Inventory was high on the external locus of control, meaning I believe that outside factors, like luck, circumstances, or other people, have a big influence on my life. I think this score is accurate because in many situations, no matter how much effort I put in, the outcome still feels out of my hands. For example, I once studied really hard for a test but still got a bad grade because the questions were much harder than expected. Another time, I applied for a leadership position in a club, but I didn’t get it because the teacher in charge had a different preference. Even in sports, I’ve had moments where my team lost not because we played badly, but because the referee made questionable calls. These situations make me feel like no matter how much I try, external factors play a huge role in what happens, which is why I agree with my test results.

# data[].attributes.body
1) My score came out to be a 7 which means I have an internal locus of control. 2) I believe it to be accurate because I understand that if I dont put in effort into my work it wont come out to be as good as something I would put effort into. External) 1- one time I was playing a soccer match in gym and my team lost. instead of saying Id try harder next time I blamed it on my teammates. 2- I lost my temper on my family during a trip and I blamed it on the sun giving me a headache.3-I did bad on a test score and said it was okay because the majority of the class got a similar score to me. Internal) 1 whenever i’m not confident for an assignment I make sure to study and do my work. 2- whenever my team isn’t working well together I engage them instead of complaining. 3- when I do well doing a sport I know it’s because I was focusing and motivated to do well.

# data[].attributes.body
1. My score was an 8, which means I have a stronger internal locus of control.

2. I think this score is accurate as the things I have accomplished or failed to accomplish are all from the ways I have prepared for them. I am likely to take accountability for my actions as I think what I do is my responsibility.

3. External example 1-When I got a bad grade on a Spanish project, I blamed my Spanish teacher for being a harsh grader.

External example 2-When I forget about a test, I blamed the teacher for not reminding us.

External example 3-I blame being tired on me having to stay up and do homework, but I could have done it earlier.

4. Internal example 1-When I get a good grade on a test I studied for, I think it is because I worked hard

Internal example 2-When I make a good play at a softball game or practice it is because of my skills and working hard on them before hand

Internal example 3-When I put my AirPods through the washing machine I owned up to it and fixed it myself.

1. 12- External locus of control

2. I think this score is accurate because I think I am on a borderline of internal and external depending on the situation.

3. a) I got a bad score on a test and I blamed my teacher’s teaching instead of the fact that I did not study well.

b) I didn’t walk my dog because it was raining and my mom yelled at me.

c) I blamed me not getting out of bed all day on getting sick when in reality I chose not to get out of bed all day.

4. a) When I got a good score on a test, I knew it was because I studied.

b) I got better at my sport because I tried hard at practice.

c) I went to my math teacher for help and I did better on the next quiz.

# data[].attributes.body
1) My score was a 15, which is a higher score meaning I have more of an external locus of control.

2) I believe that this score doesn’t very accurately represent me as a person because I have never truly believed in luck. In some instances I think I have been lucky which has led to good things but in most circumstances I think that skill is what determines a persons success in life.

3)EXTERNAL EXAMPLES:

1. When I did gymnastics I would blame the judges on how they scored my routines instead of looking at the mistakes I made to get points deducted.

2.When I had an early morning meet I would blame the time of my meet on my success rather than my own skill.

3.When I do bad on my Ap Bio test, I would blame my Ap Bio teacher on how poorly she taught the notes rather than looking at other factors like how much I studied.

3)INTERNAL EXAMPLES:

1. When I had a gymnastics meet that I wasn’t fully prepared for, I looked at how well I tried in the gym and how much effort I put into every practice.

2.When I had to get an assignment done for math class, I got it done right away knowing that I had the capability to instead of putting it off.

3.When I left my house later than usual to get to school and got stuck in traffic, I know it was my own fault that I left too late knowing traffics would be worse the later I left rather than the earlier I leave.

# data[].attributes.body
I scored a 7, meaning I have an internal locus of control. This means I believe people are in control of many things that happen to them, and I take responsibility for my own actions. I believe this score is accurate because I am very hard on myself in everything that I do, and I am always telling myself I can do better if I work harder, and I am fully responsible for what happens. Three examples from my life where I have experienced external locus control are when my flight got delayed back home from Italy due to weather, when my team lost a game and I blamed the refs rather than the mistakes we made during the game, and when my ride to school picked me up late, so I blamed them rather than the fact that I could’ve walked and chose not to. Three examples of internal focus in my life are when I did poorly on a test and I acknowledged that I didn’t study as much as I should’ve, when I played very poorly in my softball games and I acknowledged that it was because I went to bed late the night before, and when I made varsity freshmen year I knew that I worked hard to make it there.

# data[].attributes.body
1) My score was 7, which reflects that I have a more internal locus of control.

2) I believe my score is pretty accurate because I believe skill will get you further in life than luck.

3) EXTERNAL:

1.When I used to play soccer and basketball I would blame the referee if I ever had a bad game.

2.When the weather is windy outside, I blame my bad race performance on the fact that there was wind, so it was not as fast.

3.When something on my math homework was not on the notes, I blame my teacher for not teaching it to me.

4) INTERNAL

1.When I realize I have get an assignment done anyway, so I might as well get it done as soon as possible so I don’t wait until last minute and its rushed and does not turn out to be my best work.

2.When I get my laundry from the laundry room, I put my clothes away as soon as possible so my clean clothes do not pile up all over my bedroom floor.

3.When my muscles get tight after a long run, I set aside time to roll them out so they won’t bother me the next day.

# data[].attributes.body
My score was 12, which is a higher score. I have an external locus of control because I tend to blame things more on outside forces.

I think this score is somewhat accurate because sometimes I do feel like some things are out of my control. I also think that my actions matter so I think I am a mix of both.

External:

• I did bad on a math test and blamed the teacher instead of admitting I didn’t study enough.

• My baseball team lost, and I blamed the umpires instead of accepting the fact that we didn’t play our best.

• I was late to school and blamed traffic instead of realizing I could have left earlier.

Internal:

• When I studied hard for my next math test and got a good grade. I made sure to study better and this led to me having more confidence.

• When I got my driver’s license, I knew it was because I practiced a lot not because I was just a naturally good driver

• When I wanted to start waking up a little earlier, I set alarms and made to have better sleeping habits so I wasn’t so tired in the morning. I took responsibility by doing these things.

# data[].attributes.body
I scored a 8 which means I have an internal locus control. I believe this score is accurate because I usually take responsibility for things I’m in control of. External 1) I believed my final grade in my English class last year was because my teacher didn’t like me. External 2) When i get sick I always blame my friends even though they aren’t sick. External 3) When I do bad on tests and quizzes I always blame it on the teacher for putting harder questions. Internal 1) I study in order to do better on quizzes and tests. Internal 2) ask for help if I’m stuck. Internal 3) choose how to react in difficult situations.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I scored a 6, which is an internal locus of control.

2. I agree with this score because I do take responsibility for things that I feel are in my control.

External

1. Sometimes I put off assignments until the last minute, and once I have to finish it in a day, instead of blaming myself for procrastinating about it, I blame the class its for for not giving me enough time.

2. Once when I was low on my medication, I didn’t tell my mom until I was all out. Instead of blaming myself for not saying anything sooner, I blamed the medicine itself saying that I didn’t know there was no refills left (it says right on the container).

3. Sometimes when I’m running late, I blame other factors, like traffic, instead of myself for not getting ready earlier.

Internal

1. Last semester I was struggling in my math class, and I was able to recognize that I needed help so I got in contact with my tutor for help instead of just struggling (which I sometimes do)

2. If I have to rush on finishing an assignment, I take the responsibility for it not being the best than if I had used my time better.

3. Sometimes I stay up too late and the next day I can’t focus as well. I can take the responsibility for not getting enough sleep than blaming something else.

# data[].attributes.body
For my score, I got a 4 which means I have an internal locus of control. I believe this score is accurate because I think that if you’re not skilled enough or good at something then thats on you not that you just weren’t lucky enough. If something goes wrong, you probably just didn’t try hard enough, you can’t just be “unlucky” on scoring an F on a test. If that were to happen that just means you were unprepared and didn’t put effort into understanding the material. Examples from my life where I’ve experienced external locus of control are 1) If I am presenting on the first day for presentations, I blame the fact that I went on the first day because I didn’t get as much time to prepare as people who went on the second day did. I also wasn’t able to see many examples of how others did their presentation before I did mine. 2) Sometimes on a test I blame that it wasn’t on the review and that we weren’t told to practice it as to why I didn’t know how to do it on the test. 3) When I think of the future, I blame that I wont be able to buy a house as early as people could when they were my parents age because the prices are high in the current economy compared to what peoples incomes are. Examples from my life where I’ve experienced internal locus of control are 1) When I get a lower grade on the test, I study and prepare for the next one rather than procrastinating until the very last minute and not studying at all. 2) If I don’t do good at a game, I practice more in order to get better rather than blaming the conditions of weather, etc. 3) If I am not on time to something, I will leave earlier the next time instead of blaming the traffic or the fact that a train came when I was on the way and that it was just poor luck.

# data[].attributes.body
I scored an 11 which means I have an external locus of control. I don’t think this is very accurate because I often believe that you should control what you can control, and your life is dictated by your hard work.

3. I have experienced an external locus of control when I was driving to practice and I blamed the train on why I was late. I didn’t do good on a test and I blamed the fact that we “didn’t learn it in class”. Also, I have had a bad game, and I have blamed the umps.

4. I have studied in order to do well on quizzes. I have practiced softball to get better when no one else was since hard work outlasts natural talent. I have tried to get better sleep because I recognized that I was too tired when I was taking quizzes.

# data[].attributes.body
I scored 8 points which means I have an internal locus of control. This makes sense considering I tend to blame myself for things and don’t believe in luck.

External

1. I believe my grade in my English class last semester was because I had a bad teacher who didn’t like me

2. I don’t control when I wake up every morning because I’m usually awakened by my sister storming or her random alarms at 3 am

3. My mood is better when it’s loony and raining so when its not my mood is worse

Internal

1. I know that if I study for a test I’m choosing to work hard to do good and I’ll likley do better

2. When hanging out with friends i choose to have a better time by staying off my phone

3. I control the content in my brain so if Im thinking about something toxic or bad its due to what I’m surrounding myself with

# data[].attributes.body
I scored a 9 which means I have an internal locus of control. I believe this is accurate because for the most part I believe that you are in control of your life. Internal 1) during my competitive season I really wanted to go tot state so I spent the whole season working really hard to get the routine clean along with my team. Internal 2) My grades for the past year and semester have been at a spot I am okay with because I’ve put in the work to have my work done on time and well. Internal 3) When something goes wrong or I did something I shouldn’t I typically analyze what’s happened or where I went wrong. External 1). If my team has done bad at a competition I could have blamed the team for how we were feeling that day. External 2) In the case that I do bad on a test I may blame the test for being different than the curriculum. External 3) If I get sick I may blame other people for getting me sick or seasonal changes instead of maybe having unhealthy lifestyle habits.

# data[].attributes.body
1. My score was a 14 which means my results reflect an external locus of control.

2. I think this score is partially accurate. I do think that sometimes I blame external things, so that I feel that I didn’t do anything wrong. I take accountability for it. No one wants to feel that they are in the wrong so that it why they blame external forces for their own circumstances.

3. Example 1 - A did bad on my Math test and when I went home I blamed my teacher for putting material on the test that we never learned.

Example 2 - I was late for work because I got caught by a train. When I got to work I blamed the train for being late. I really could have left earlier to avoid the situation.

Example 3 - When I used to play club volleyball, I would always blame my teammates for losing. I really was apart of the lost and my teammates were not the reason we lost.

4. Example 1 - My friends and I found out our Proms were on the same day. Although we wished we could go together, we did not get mad. We realized we can meet up after and that we both can still go and have fun.

Example 2 - I found out I had a pop quiz in math. Instead of getting mad at my teacher, I was able to study a bot beforehand and I ended up doing well.

Example 3 - I was late to babysitting one time and instead of lying and blaming it on traffic I told them the truth that I truly left later than I should have.

# data[].attributes.body
I got a 5, meaning I have more of an internal locus. I think this is pretty accurate. While I believe that there are things people can’t control, I think it’s the response to outside forces that matters more in the long-run. In my day to day life I subscribe more to the idea of hard work yielding good results especially in sports or hobbies. I’ve experienced external locus of control in my everyday life at my house. I have two dogs who both do not appreciate the rain. Once I was trying to get my dogs to go outside when they didn’t want to and I accidentally tripped on my shoe laces, instead of blaming myself for not tying my shoes I blamed my dog for not going outside in the first place. Another time I was baking cupcakes for my color guard team and I had forgotten to tell my mother so she turned the stove off while I was getting icing from the basement. Instead of blaming myself for not telling her about the cupcakes, I blamed her for not checking the oven. I am usual a very punctual person, so I get very annoyed when I am late. I have a friend who is consistently late to everything, I could have picked her up earlier but I forgot and we were late. I ended up blaming her for taking too long to get in the car. I have experienced internal control when I dropped a plate doing the dishes and I knew I should have dried my hands before picking it up. Another time I had just learned to ride a bike as a kid and I fell and scrapped my knee and I knew I had been going too fast. The most recent time when I had to experience internal locus of control was when I forgot about my math test on a Monday and didn’t study for it and got a bad grade.

# data[].attributes.body
My score was a 19. This means that my reflected an external locus of control. I think that this score is somewhat accurate because I think I tend to sometimes think that certain things that happen to me are outside of my control. My first example for external locus of control is if I’m do bad on a test even though I studied, I just say that my teacher doesn’t like me and they purposely gave me a bad score. My second example is if I’m having a bad day, I say that the weather is bad and that’s why. My last example is if during volleyball I double the ball, I say that the gym is too cold and not the fact that I didn’t warm up enough. My first example for internal locus of control is if I get a bad grade on a project, I usually recognize that I didn’t work as hard as I should’ve. Another example is if I am late, I should have left earlier instead of blaming it on traffic. My last example is if I do bad on a test, I probably should’ve studied or studied more than I did.

1. I got a 14 which means I have an external locus of control.

2. I believe it is accurate because i tend to blame external factors instead of seeing what i could have done differently in certain situations.

3. = external

1: the people that i get for my marvel rivals lobbies.

2: when i got a bad math test score.

3: me not climbing well because the holds are bad

4. = internal

1: taking responsibility for not doing well at a competition

2: when i loose a game thinking about what i could have done better and not blaming my teammates.

3: deciding to eat healthy then loosing weight.

My score was 16 and it indicated that I have an external locus of control. I agree, I believe in external forces having an effect over what happens in my life. Sometimes I feel like things are out of my hands. However, I also believe that I take some responsibility for the events in my life. External locus : 1. When my English teacher gave me two C’s, so I believe there is nothing I can do to get a good grade on a presentation. 2. When I assume that random people don’t like me for reasons that I can’t control rather than trying to communicate with others and meet new people. 3. When I believe I can’t win a tennis match because there are people who have had more training than me and I should just expect to fail. Internal Locus of Control: 1. When I do bad on a test so, I study for my next test and do well. 2. When I bowl a bad game, the next game I tell myself to be more focused. 3. When I wake up late, so I set an alarm for the next day to wake up early.

i got 17, it’s a external locus of control

2) i guess yeah, because you have to be lucky to be good in life. the right things have to happen.

EXTERNAL

1. one time i was playing a game and my teammates where doing so horrible it felt like a 5v1 since my 2 teammates where doing more harm than good.

2. also when i wait for things i ordered to arrive, sometimes they come late and i can’t do anything, even if their postal is close i can’t drive there a pick it up to be faster, i have to wait.

3. when teacher suddenly give me so much homework, all i wanted to do was rest but nope.

INTERNAL,

1. when i was doing my humanity project i didn’t really wanted to do it but i forced myself and i got a very high score on it, even my teacher told me that he really liked the video i made.

2. when i go off in a game and win, it’s my skills

3. when i decide what i’m going to eat, like orange chicken or canes.

I scored 6 points. This means I have an internal locus of control. I believe that this is an accurate statement. I do believe that a majority of the time outcomes are decided by how people act and not just by a strike of luck. A time I’ve experienced external locus of control is losing while gambling. I have no control over the cards I or the people I play with receive. This means it’s not my fault I lost. A time I’ve experienced internal locus of control was getting a good grade on my math final. The score was a result of my hard work not a result of luck.

# data[].attributes.body
my score was 12 so i got a high score of external locus of control. Its somewhat accurate i do believe that there are external forces at play but it also depends on what the person does also affects on how they control there life.

3= external

1: when i was doing drivers ed how the other drivers where.

2: certain test we have never studied for are completely out of our control.

3: when i have a bad day i blame events out of my control for why my day sucked and not as good.

4= internal

1: how hard i study on a test is a major reason on if i do good on a test or not.

2: how much sleep i get is because of me and what i do before bed.

3: if i do good on a test is how much i studied and effort i put into the test.

My score was a 19 and reflects an external locus of control. I believe the score could be a little accurate only because I feel like it depends on the situation for a lot of them. But most of the time I do blame outside forces for a lot of things that happen. Examples from my life when I experienced an external locus of control was when I blamed what was on the math test I had, instead of blaming myself for not studying as much. A second one would be when I blamed the weather over not running well at my track meet, but it was more my fault. A third one was when I blamed the teachers for not teaching something well enough but I could have been more focused. Some examples of internal locus of control was when I studied hard for my test and got a good grade. Another one is when I had homework to do and I didn’t understand it, I blamed myself instead of the teacher because I wasn’t paying attention during a small part in class. Another one was training very hard for my sport so I can do well the next day.

1) I got a score of 9 which means I have an internal locus of control.

2) I definitely believe this is accurate because I am definitely a strong believer that you are always in control of how you react to situations. If I get a bad score, it’s certainly not the teachers fault for not teaching me, it’s my fault because I could’ve watched videos or read about the topic on my own and take responsibility for my learning. In life you will always meet others you may not agree with the way they do things and you simply can’t control that, but you certainly can control how you react to the situation.

3) The first example of when I experienced external Locus is when is tennis my partner and I lost the first set and I kept telling myself it’s on her, but it’s always a team effort, so I was 100% in the wrong. My second example is from when I complained I had nothing to eat because my mom didn’t make anything even though I was literally 15 and could definitely make something on my own. My last example is from chemistry, I would constantly say it’s the teacher’s fault that I don’t understand anything when I really should‘Ve taken time to understand it outside of school.

4) The first example of me experiencing Internal locus of control is when this year I got a bad score on a US History test, but instead of complaining the teacher didn’t teach it, I made sure to study harder for the next test. My second example is when I took responsibility for when I forgot to buy milk on the way home when my mom asked, but instead of making an excuse I simply just told my mom I’m sorry and went to go buy it after that. Lastly, I am always honest to others about situations and never make excuses for why I was lazy, I just straight up say I need to fix the issue.

1) my score was a 6 which means I have an Internal Locus of control

2) I think it is somewhat accurate. I tend to think that you can change your life and accomplish anything with hard work. However I also believe that what is ment to be will be. However if you don’t try you will probably not get there.

3) I have experienced external control when It was my birthday and I had covid. I was really upset I couldn’t do anything with friends or family when I still could have found a way to make it special. I could have had my own party and celebrated with family later. Another time was when my dog wanted to go for a walk but I had my brother walk her because I had to much homework when in reality it wouldn’t have hurt to much to take her for a five minute walk. My third example is when I needed to study for a test but instead of studying I did other things. Eventually when I started studying it was getting later and I blamed my lack of studying on it being to late when In reality I should have started earlier. 4) I exprianced Internal locus of control when I did bad on an essay, so I relized my mistakes and worked with the teacher to do better on the next one. I also was really lazy one day and had a lot of homework the next day. Instead of getting upset that the teachers give to much homework I relized that I dug myself into a hole. The third is when I dropped my phone in water and it broke. Instead of complaining that it slipped our of my hand or was out of my control I owned up to the fact I need to be more careful.

I got a 7/23. That means i have an internal locus of control. I do be alive the score is accurate. I believe most of the things that happen in my life come from my decisions. There’s been many times where I’ve blamed some refs for my team losing a game. It is out of my control the wins speed/ direction in golf. One more thing out of my control is the weather. I feel like i get affected by weather. One internal locus of control for me is how hard i work in practices. Another is me and my duo getting ready to spray down someone in the sky that just got rebooted. And one more is getting locked for a big test a few night before.

My score was a 10, My results reflect an external locus of control. I think This score is somewhat accurate I do find myself blaming external forces sometimes but I also do find myself taking accountability for my wrongs so I believe I’m more in the middle. One time when I went up for a layup during a game I thought I got fouled and I blamed it on the ref. Another example is when My parents were mad that someone left the basement a mess after having people over I immediately pinned it on my brother. My last example is when I took my math final the last question was a problem we did not review a lot and I blamed it on the teacher for not going through it more with us. Some examples of internal locus of control is when I forgot to study for a vocab quiz and I did not do too great I took responsibility for not checking Schoology. Another example is when I missed a wide open cutter in game and MY teammate told me and I took accountability. My last example is when I broke my phone screen I had to own up to it and tell my dad what really happened.

1)

I got a 9 which is low that means I have more of an internal locus.

2)

I believe the score is accurate because I know for many things it really is on you to do the task at hand. I also think though sometimes you may need a little bit of luck. I mainly think though that it is on me but a lot of the times if I dont like the task then I wont try but i know I have to instead im just become lazy.

3)

1. When my friends say something that isn’t all too nice. I can’t really control what they do or say to me so I just let it be but I can control how I act towards back to them. 2. People talking trash in soccer, again I can’t control what they say. Usually I am not starting this but I just can’t control other peoples actions that affect me. 3. In Fortnite I can’t control getting sniped from across the map.

4) Identify 3 examples from your life when you have experienced INTERNAL Locus of Control.

1. Having a big soccer game and I will just eat really healthy and practice more to be ready for my games. 2. Studying for a quiz because I never study but I know I have to if I want to control the outcome of my test or quiz and If I put in the work ill get the outcome I want. 3. Working hard in Fortnite so that I dont get sniped next time and instead I crank 90s and full box him.

My score was 11. I have an external locus of control. I believe the score is decently accurate since I catch myself sometimes blaming teachers for grades even though it was definitely my fault. It’s usually at school, for other things, I believe I take accountability. 3 examples of external locus of control are when I blamed my 8th grade teacher for my grades since she didn’t like me, my french teacher didn’t like me since I talked a lot in class, and I feel that my physics teacher sometimes takes off points on labs for no reason. # examples of internal locus of control are when I make myself study for a math test, when I make myself read my AP Lang book, and when I study for my physics test.

# data[].attributes.body
1) I would say my results were in the middle. I am leaning more towards internal, however, by 2.

2) I beileve so. Even though, I usually have low motivation, I have the same ‘morals’ as internal compared to external.

3)

- When I got a poor score on my math test, I blamed my lack of time that the teacher gave me.

-My dad bought me a stair stepper for Christmas last year and I didnt use it because I was ‘too busy’ with school.

-I dont walk to the bus when I have to use the bus because it is cold outside and I make my dad drive me on his way to work.

4)

- I had a lot of assingments due this weekend that I had to complete. I set aside my phone and got up from my bed to complete everything.

-I got a bad score on my chemistry test and I didnt freak out and retook it and got an A.

-When I broke my dad’s phone because I dropped it and I owned up to it and I payed for his repair.

I got a 13 which means I jabs External locus of control. I think it’s accurate because I do find my self trying to find an excuse for things that happen, but I do try to take accountability or reason in myself in situations. (external examples) 1)How my teachers grade things. 2) the things that are on a test. 3) If I get sick. (internal examples) 1) Ask for help before a test. 2) study the materials given to me. 3) If I take care of myself when I get sick.

12/23 was my score. My results indicate that I have more of an External locus of control. I believe it is accurate because I do tend to blame other things over my own actions. External: 1. When I was at a track meet I blamed the schools track for my bad time. 2. I blamed my friend for something that was my fault. I blamed the teacher for making the test hard when I should’ve studied more. Internal: 1. I knew I should have studied more for a test that I didn’t prepare myself for. 2. I was in control for losing a wager that I made with my friends. 3. I took responsibility for forgetting to turn in homework that was assigned a week ahead of time.

My score was 8, which is low. I focus on internal locus of control. I believe this is true because I know that I create my own problems and I have direct influence on my life and my choices. I make choices that will have consequences and other people do as well. Yes, there are some external factors, but I believe everyone is in control of their own lives.

Examples of External Locus of Control

1. When it rains and I can’t go outside and play baseball

2. When it snows and I can’t drive as well as usual and its slippery

3. Being unable to help my team win a game because I was sick and couldn’t play

Examples of Internal Locus of Control

1. Studying for a test and getting a good grade.

2. Practicing in a sport and then performing well after.

3. Practicing driving and parallel parking and I got much better at it.

I got a high score and I think my results reflect an external locus of control but I also know that I can see and understand Internal locus of control but admit to it less. I think this score is accurate because I blame external forces more often even if I know it’s because of internal forces. 3 times i’ve experienced external locus of control was when I didn’t know what was on my math test, when I am driving and there are other cars driving around me, and when teachers assign a lot of homework. 3 times i’ve experienced internal locus control was when I took accountability for not doing well on my math test after not studying enough, when I choose how to react in difficult situations, and when I complete my missing assignments

My score was 15, and it reflects an external locus of control. I believe that this score is accurate because alot of these questions were asking about believing in luck and I'm a very huge believer in luck. 1. When I was supposed to go somewhere for my birthday but it started downpouring that day, 2. When I was going to the arcade with my friends in 5th grade, a group of highschoolers came up to us and gave us a bunch of unused 1 hour free cards. 3 When my parents won a greencard giveaway and I had the chance to come to America. Some ways I experienced Internal Locus of control was 1. When I studied really hard for my physics test and it proved the be useful since I got an A 2. When I packed for cold weather when we went to Canada for a trip even though my parents said that it probably wasn't going to be cold and it did end up being cold 3. My AP lang teacher didn't like my topic for my research paper so I came up with a new topic that she would like.

I got a 19/23 on the inventory. This means i have high external locus of control. I do believe this is accurate because i always blame others for my mistakes because to me, nothings my fault. One time my mom asked me to take out the trash but i said it was pouring rain and I’ll do it later, but i forgot to do it later and my mom yelled at me. Another example is when i went hunting with my dad i tried to shoot a deer but i closed my eyes while pulling the trigger and blamed that the gun moved. One last example of external is when i went to score a goal but it didn’t go in and I blamed it on the ref because my opponent was grabbing me. Some examples of internal are when i forgot to close the pool at my job because i was so tired and i said that t was my fault and didn’t blame it on being tired. Another example is i accidentally broke my sisters dryer brush and i took ownership when she asked who did this and why. And lastly my mom asked me to feed the dog but i forgot because i was watching tv and took ownership later that night saying im sorry I forgot.
