“…Relationship between ILC and learned helplessness was also reported in psychological fields other than educational, and various directions were reported. For instance, a study of Grekhov, Suleymanova and Adamovich (2016) suggested that ILC negatively predicted learned helplessness among patients with chronic disease; the belief of being helpless were reported to be lower among patients who believed that their attitude of life might affect the severity of their illness. On the other hand, April, Dharani and Peters (2012) reported that the balance between internal and external locus of control predicts lower level of learned helplessness, instead of ILC alone.…”

Introduction. Previous studies indicated that more than 70% university students committed academic procrastination, and one of the most prominent factors is learned helplessness, the perception that one is incapable of finishing tasks well. It was also hypothesized that when students believe that they are in control of their own events, their learned helplessness will not significantly predict their academic procrastination. This current study aims to test the hypothesis whether internal locus of control mediates the relationship between learned helplessness and academic procrastination among university students. Method.A total of 240 university students were randomly recruited to participate in this current study. Duttweiller's Internal Control Scale was utilized to measure the internal locus of control, Pure Procrastination Scale (adapted for academic setting) was employed to measure the academic procrastination level and Learned Helplessness Scale was used to measure the level of learned helplessness among the participants. Multiple regression with PROCESS macros was employed to analyze the data.Results. Results indicated that learned helplessness signifcantly predicted internal locus of control, and that internal locus of control was a significant predictor of academic procrastination. These results support the mediational hypothesis. Learned helplessness was no longer a significant predictor of academic procrastination after controlling for the internal locus of control, consistent with full mediation.Approximately 21% of the variance in academic procrastination can be explained by the predictors.Indirect coefficient was significant. Learned helplessness was associated with approximately .15 points higher academic procrastination scores as mediated by internal locus of control Discussion and Conclusion. Internal locus of control fully mediates the influence of learned helplessness on academic procrastination. In other words, when students believe that they are in control of their events, the less likely they will procrastinate doing their tasks due to helplessness they have learned. Findings of this study suggested that procrastination in academic setting occurred due to the perception of helplessness that have been learned over time; nevertheless, the influence will not be that deteriorating towards the students when the they believe that they are responsible and in control of their events.

The study shows the importance of economic deprivation in a situation of severe somatic disease using ischemic heart disease patients as an example. This factor affects the subjective control in significant social relationships including family relationships. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of the disease situation and economic deprivation on presence of internality in family relationships. We assume that internality in family relationships can be both a resource of adaptation in a difficult life situation and also an additional cause of traumatization. In the control group, internality in family relationships is linked to the awareness of the own identity, but in groups of patients with ischemic heart disease is linked to the reliance on family resources. It can be said, that internality in family relationships requires psychological maturity of an individual. The analyzed situations of disease, disability and economic deprivation reduce control in the relationships, therefore, the possibility of obtaining family support becomes more problematic.
