Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Locus of control is not an inborn trait, but results from development of a general expectancy about the dominant sources of the reinforcement they receive. In other words, it did not develop overnight. Also, locus of control can shift over time, as a function of life experience, job responsibilities, and conscious attitudes.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: Principled maturity is the level in which moral values reside in a commitment to freely selected standards, rights, and duties. At the highest stage of maturity, this set of values is comprehensive, consistent, and universal.
