چکیده

The present study was undertaken with an aim to study the locus of control and adjustment among middle-aged husbands with working and non-working spouse. The survey was designed with 80 samples (husbands with working spouse and non-working spouses) in the age group between 40-50 years on the basis of their family income, religion and occupation. Data was collected with the help of Levensons’ Scale for Locus of Control and Bell’s Adjustment Inventory and was statistically analyzed. No significant difference was found between husbands with working or nonworking spouses in the ‘factor of powerful others’ meaning that other people can control one’s outcome. Significant difference was also found with respect to ‘chance control of locus of control’ indicating that an unordered, chance or random event can control one’s outcome. However, there was a significant difference among the husbands with working and non-working spouse in the ‘factor of individual control of locus of control’ showing that one’s outcome is controlled by one’s own self.
