Synopsis

This book delves into the comprehensive analysis of locus of control and reinforcement value in relation to blind and visually impaired persons' mobility training goal choices. Tracing the theoretical evolution of locus of control research, the author elucidates the historical significance of this concept within social learning theory. The book adeptly examines the tripartite conceptualization of the locus of control, the distinction between internal, powerful others, and chance orientations, and the nuanced interplay between locus of control and reinforcement value. Through a pilot study, the author establishes the reliability of the newly developed locus of control and reinforcement value measures, adding to the book's methodological rigor. The book's insights on the influence of locus of control and reinforcement value on mobility training goal choices offer valuable guidance for rehabilitation professionals seeking to optimize training interventions for this population.
