Abstract

Although there has been much research on locus of control in both education and psychology, it has had little impact on current trends in special education. This article examines the concept of locus of control, particularly in relation to its possible effect on the mainstreaming of mildly retarded children. The relationship of locus of control to achievement and the promotion of internality in children are discussed. Implications for classroom implementation and further research are suggested.
