Answer 1

The answer is "B", "external; internal".

In the psychology of personality, locus of control is how much individuals trust that they have control over the result of occasions in their lives, instead of outside powers outside their ability to control. Individuals with a solid external locus of control tend to acclaim or accuse outside variables, for example, the instructor or the exam.
