Determining the choice of jobs or education choices is one of the tasks during the development of the senior high school. For that, high school students are required to understand and master the concepts of career maturity to be able to pick and choose the appropriate career direction. Career maturity is influenced by several factors, including internal locus of control and self-concept. Someone who has an internal locus of control has a perception that the measures themselves would produce a positive thing that makes their work more successful. The self-concept is considered critical to the success of life because when someone feels good about himself and his ability, to predict a person's life will be successful.

This research aims to study and prove a correlation between internal locus of control and the career maturity to the students of SMKN (State Vocational School) 1 Percut Sei Tuan. The hypothesis in this research is there is a positive correlation between internal locus of control and the career maturity it means the higher of internal locus of control the higher of career maturity. The internal locus of control is measured using I-E scale that arranged by Rotter (1966) and adapted by researcher. The career maturity is measured by CMI that arranged by Crites and adapted into the culture of Indonesia by Taganing, et. al. (2006). This research involves 90 students in Grade XI and XII of SMKN 1 Percut Sei Tuan in Mapping survey and Construction of Concrete department. The sample is taken by total sampling method because the researcher take total population as sample of this research. Based on the results of research it concluded that there is a significant correlation between variable X – Y, with rxy = 0.674; p = 0.000 (p < 0.010) means the hypothesis is accepted. The effective contribution of internal locus of control to the career maturity is 45.5%.

The predictability of Type A behaviour was measured in a sample of 375 professionals with a shortened version of the Jenkins Activity Survey (JAS). Two structural equation models were constructed with the Type A behaviour achievement sub-scale and global (total) Type A as the predictor variables. The indices showed a reasonable-to-promising fit with the data. Type A achievement was reasonably predicted by service-career orientation, internal locus of control, power self-concept and economic innovation. Type A global was also predicted by internal locus of control, power self-concept and the entrepreneurial attitude of achievement and personal control.

Tests of empathie discrimination, self-concept and locus of control were given before and after a graduate course in supervision. The course was both didactic and experiential and was built on a TA theory base. Results from two separate studies demonstrated significant changes toward empathie discrimination skill and internal locus of control. A statistically non-significant trend toward a higher self-concept was also seen. Control groups demonstrated no significant changes.

Improving student success outcomes such as persistence and graduation rates remains a priority for higher education institutions, scholars, and advocates. Recent scholarly work argues for more qualitative work in this area to develop a deeper understanding of the issue and to identify more effective ways to increase college completion rates across all populations. This study examines student success by focusing on an understudied population in the literature: overachievers. We define overachievers as students who matriculate in the lowest quartile of an institution’s standardized test score range but are selected and persist as honors students after their first collegiate semester. This phenomenological study highlights the prevalence of a strong internal locus of control among overachievers. Using Bean and Eaton’s student success model as a framework, we explore how our participants operationalized an internal locus of control to achieve academic success in college and consider how higher education institutions can promote this mind-set and its related practices among students on their campuses.

Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden erste Ergebnisse eines Pilotforschungsprojektes vorgestellt, dessen empirischer Fokus auf das in der bundesrepublikanischen Drogenforschungslandschaft weitgehend ausgesparte Feld eines sozial integrierten Umgangs mit illegalen Drogen in gesellschaftlich etablierten Sozialkontexten gerichtet ist. Besonderes Interesse gilt dem Vermittlungsgeschehen zwischen formeller und informeller sozialer Kontrolle: Wie geht der Einzelne mit konfligierenden Botschaften einer auf ein generelles Drogenverbot abgestellten Rechtssphäre und dem darauf abgestellten institutionellen Kontext strafrechtlicher und sozialmedizinischer Kontrolle einerseits und etwaigen gebrauchsmotivierenden Botschaften der Peer-Group, des Freundes- und Bekanntenkreises andererseits um? </P><P> Innerhalb der Pilotphase wurden 34 sozial integrierte Konsumenten diverser illegaler Drogen interviewt. Die Stichprobenbildung folgte der Methode des Snowball Samplings. Die bisherigen Beobachtungen lassen sich zu zwei für den weiteren Forschungsverlauf relevanten Arbeitshypothesen verdichten: <UL><LI>Der Drogenkonsum untersteht offenbar in der Selbstwahrnehmung im Sinne einer Selbstattribution einem ›internal locus of control‹. <LI>Auch wenn es trotz des bestehenden Drogenverbots zum Konsum illegaler Drogen kommt, scheint mit dem Verbotsstatus bestimmter Substanzen häufig ein informeller Kontrolleinfluss assoziiert, welcher Konsum regulierend unterhalb der Schwelle des generalpräventiven Anspruchs des BtMGs wirksam wird.</UL>
