Impact of Locus of Control Orientation on Proneness to Maladaptive Daydreaming

This study investigates the impact of Locus of Control (LoC) orientation on proneness to Maladaptive Daydreaming (MD). For the study, 150 people were chosen as the sample size. The major goal was to investigate the connection between MD propensity and LoC orientation. A correlation value of.745 shows that the outcomes show a strong positive link between External LoC and MD propensity. This association is very statistically significant, as indicated by the significance level of 0.01 (p<0.01). These results add to our understanding of the mechanisms underlying MD and emphasise the need of taking into account individual variations in LoC orientation when evaluating and treating maladaptive daydreaming tendencies. It is advised to conduct further study to better understand the underlying processes and potential treatments for regulating dysfunctional daydreaming behaviours.
