The Effects of Self-Care Instruction on Locus of Control in Children.
Blazek, Brodie; McClellan, Muriel S.
Journal of School Health, v53 n9 p554-56 Nov 1983
A study focused on whether self-care instruction in health education can affect locus of control in fifth-grade students. Individual responsibility for self-care was encouraged. Results indicate that the instruction did increase the extent to which the children viewed health as the result of their own actions. (Author/PP)
