Description:
Social-cognitive theorists emphasize the importance of our interactions with the environment and how we interpret and respond to these external events. “According to Julian Rotter, your behavior or personality is determined by (1) what you expect to happen following a specific action, and (2) the reinforcement value attached to specific outcomes” (Huffman, Dowdell, & Sanderson, 2018, p. 439).
Instructions:

Do you have more of an internal or external locus of control? Why is it important to be aware of your locus of control and its impact on your life and your career as a student?
