For subjects attending a suburban self-help weight reduction program, successful weight reduction was associated with a relatively more 'internal' score. Although it may be expecting too much of the locus of control construct to provide confirmation of an overall theoretical basis or understanding to obesity, it would appear to warrant further evaluation with specific groups of obese subjects undergoing different weight reduction programs.
