Self-efficacy, Locus of control, Undergraduate

Self-efficacy and locus of control are two significant psychological concepts that have been thoroughly researched in connection to student motivation and academic success. This review explores the connection between these two variables among undergraduates. Locus of control pertains to an individual's perception of the factors that influence events in their life, varying from a belief that their own actions drive events (internal locus) to attribute events to external forces (external locus). On the contrary, self-efficacy is a reflection of an individual's confidence in their capacity to achieve success in a specific task or area. This review compiles findings from various studies, examining the possible mechanisms that contribute to the relationship between locus of control and self-efficacy. It also discusses the implications of this relationship for educational interventions and strategies aimed at promoting student success. Through a thorough examination of the current literature, this review seeks to deepen our comprehension of how these psychological factors interact and influence students' learning and academic performance.
