Locus of Control &
Attribution Style Test - R

Do you control your destiny or are you controlled by it? This test assesses your locus of control orientation and your attribution style.

"A locus of control orientation is a belief about whether the outcomes of our actions are contingent on what we do (internal control orientation) or on events outside our personal control (external control orientation)." (Zimbardo, 1985, p. 275)
Our attribution style determines which forces we hold responsible for our successes and failures. Both locus of control and attribution styles have great influence on our motivation, expectations, self-esteem, risk-taking behavior, and even on the actual outcome of our actions. What is your locus of control? And what forces are responsible for your successes and failures? Find out with the Locus of Control and Attribution Style Test.

Examine the following statements and indicate how often you feel that way, to what degree you endorse the statement or how much it applies to you. After finishing the test, you will receive a detailed, personalized interpretation of your score that includes diagrams, information on the test topic and tips.
