Answer 1

Answer:B) An internal locus of control

Explanation:

As people we go through different situations and challenges but we differ in how we handle these situations and challenges. There are people who are able to hold on to a belief that everything is in our hands and we are in control of what happens in our life are referred to by psychologist as having internal locus of control.

Those who feel out of control , like things that happens to their life are beyond their control and they usually blame it on external factors , they have external locus of control.

Our locus of control can help us handle situations better and give us that power to influence things in our lives and not just give up. People will take charge of their lives if they feel they are in control just like Jessica does.
