- LOC
- Internal: things that happen to you are controlled by yourself
- External: things happen due to luck or things out of their control
- Continuum - there is a range between internal and external
- internal are more likely to resist social influence - more self confident and less need for social approval
- Evaluation
- Research support : obed
- Milgram put a participant w a disobeying confederate and obedience dropped to 10%
- Contradictory research
- Twenge found from 1960 to 2002, people have become more resistant to obey but more external
- Limitations of LOC
- Rotter points out that our behaviour is more reliant on our past experience of conforming or obeying in that previous situation
