Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that people from North America tend to have more of an internal locus of control, meaning they believe they can control their outcomes in life, while people from some other cultures, such as many Asian cultures, tend to have more of an external locus of control, meaning they believe outcomes are more determined by external factors. However, it is not accurate to make broad generalizations about personality types and national cultures as there is always variation within a culture and overlap between cultures. Therefore, options A and B are incorrect. Option C is also inaccurate as it makes a broad generalization about North Americans that is not supported by research.
