本研究的目的是确定是否控制点的取向是预测减肥的行为矫正减肥计划的参与者。受试者完成了一个控制点问卷调查，包括4.0个问题，开始前的程序，并再次在1年后。41名参与者开始了该方案。28人在一年后离开。他们的体重下降是显著的（P < 0.001），并与内部控制点取向（P < 0.05）。研究结果表明，不同的减肥活动可以提供取决于人的控制点取向。可以为具有内部定向的参与者提供标准的减肥计划。另一些人，则有着更多的外部控制点取向。可以提供一个适应性的方案。同时也注重和鼓励学员的内部导向。(C)2004爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司保留所有权利。
The objective of this study was to determine if locus of control orientation is predictive for weight loss among participants in a behaviour modification weight reduction programme. The subjects completed a locus of control questionnaire consisting of 4.0 questions before starting the programme and again after 1 year. Forty-one participants started the programme. 28 remained after 1 year. Their weight loss was significant (P < 0.001) and associated with an internal locus of control orientation (P < 0.05). The findings suggest that different weight reduction activities could be offered depending on the person's locus of control orientation. Participants with an internal orientation could be offered a standard weight reduction programme. Others, with a more external locus of control orientation. could be offered an adapted programme. which also focused on and encouraged the participants' internal orientation.
