Abstract

The paper examines the relationship between Locus of control and Job Involvement of public secondary school teachers’ in Oyo state, Nigeria, in the context of sustainable development. Data was collected from 250 respondents (secondary school teachers) through questionnaire prepared from Mary Lynn Collins scale, Rotter’s locus of control scale and Kanungo scale for job involvement. Collected data was analysed using descriptive statistics of frequency counts, percentage, average, mean and standard deviation. The result of the study revealed that locus of control had a significant positive association with job involvement among the teachers. The implications for educational policy making, as well as future research are discussed.
