APFIVE Professor White claims that individuals with an external locus of control uniformly blame fate for their failures and never acknowledge any personal influence. Which historical evidence best refutes Professor White’s oversimplification?
Rotter’s (1966) Locus of Control Scale, which revealed a spectrum of external–internal orientations rather than a uniform tendency to blame fate.
Rogers’ theory of self‐actualization, which emphasizes growth but does not measure attributional style regarding fate.
Bandura’s research on self‐efficacy, which, although related to personal belief, does not directly address locus of control measurements.
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, which categorizes motivations but does not delineate the nuances of locus of control.
