A Comparison Of Unidimensional And Multidimensional Locus Of Control Scales For The Measurement Of The Effects Of Self-Regulation Training, Alan Joseph Paduano
Electronic Theses & Dissertations
Comprehensive training in self regulation (SR) (including biofeedback training, relaxation techniques, and cognitive therapy principles) has been proposed as a means of affecting change in individual locus of control (LOC) orientation.

Nineteen participants in a biofeedback/stress reduction class completed a course in SR training. The pre-test/post-test results were compared with those of a …
