Cultural Display Rules for Emotional Expression
Step 1: Select a country different from your country of origin. Do not select Japan as this country is already discussed in your assigned readings for this module.
Step 2: Conduct research using credible online sources regarding the emotional display rules for your selected country and culture. You may want to consider exploring the Global Road Warrior database: https://www-globalroadwarrior-com.eu1.proxy.openathens.net/?c=et4UrjGap8
You can also access the database through the SPC Databases:

Select Global Road Warrior.
Step 3: Thoughtfully answer the following questions related to the online research you completed:
Explain the display rules for emotions in the country/culture you selected. Make sure you identify the country you selected.
Compare and contrast the display rules for emotions in your selected country with the emotional display rules of your country of origin.
Step 4: Use APA style in-text citations in your responses to the questions above. Remember to include an in-text citation any time you paraphrase or quote information from an outside source. At the end of your response, compose APA style references for your sources.

Internal or External Locus of Control
Julian Rotter set forth his Expectancy Theory, which suggests that learning creates thoughts or “expectancies” that guide our behavior. Furthermore, our “expectancies” are also influenced by how rewards and punishments are controlled.
If you believe that expectancies are controlled by your own efforts, then you have an internal locus of control. In other words, your own effort controls the outcome of a situation. “I did well because I studied hard” reflects an internal locus of control.
If you tend to believe that rewards or punishments are controlled by factors external of you, such as luck, then you are demonstrating an external locus of control. In other words, you attribute outcomes to situations from which you have no control. “I did well because I got lucky” reflects an external locus of control.
You can have a combination of both, especially in different situations. However, our thinking tends to be dominated by one or the other.
Step 5: Click on and complete the Locus of Control test. Then, score your results in accordance with the instructions at the bottom of the Locus of Control test and view the explanation of your results.
