The current study attempted to investigate the relationship between Locus of control and happiness through determining Locus of Control Orientation (Internal or External) and measuring the rate of happiness. Rotter’s 29 item Locus of Control scale was used to measure the locus of control orientation and 29 item Oxford Happiness Questionnaire was used to measure happiness of the participants. A sample of 62 participants, male and female, aged 18-25years old (young adults), was randomly selected for the study. The IBM software programme Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) for Windows was used to manage and score the data. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and the Pearson’s Product-Moment Correlation was used to test for a linear relationship between the two variables.Metrics
