Welcome to my HSS Web Site!

The survey you will be taking focuses on locus of control and the ability to exercise.

To get to my survey just simply click on the EXERCISE SURVEY page!!!

 An individual can have either an internal or external locus of control. For example, an individual with an external locus of control may feel their actions and lifestyle habits will have little effect on their health status whereas an individual with an internal locus of control may feel their actions and lifestyle habits will directly affect their health status.

  

The purpose behind this survey is to find out if there is any type of correlation between exercise and an individual's locus of control.

The results will be posted sometime in early December!!
