Adediran, Adeniyi Gabriel Locus of control Health-status Environmental Quality of life Gender x.78p This study examined the influence of locus of control on environmental quality of life; It determined the influenced of perceived health status on environmental quality of life; It also examined gender differences in the perception of the influenced of environmental quality of life. These were with the view of determining factors that influenced environmental quality of life among residents of oil producing communities in Ondo State. Primary data will be used for the study. The data were collected from the residents of Ayetoro and Awoye communities. These two communities were purposively selected because they are much more affected and most populated among the 10 most affected by oil spillage in the oil producing communities in Ilaje Local Government Area of Ondo State. According to NPC (2006), the two communities have a population of 8031 and 5136 respectively. A proportion of 5% will be selected from each community making a total of 657 participants using convenience sampling technique. Three standardized psychological scales will be used for data collection. These are: Multidimensional Locus of Control Scale (MLCS), Perceived Health Status scale (PHSS) and Environmental Quality of Life Scale (EQLS). Data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics such as mean and percentages, and inferential statistics such as independents sample t-test and one-way ANOVA. The results of the analysis showed that locus of control significantly influenced the environmental quality of life among residents of oil producing communities in the area (t = 6.292; df = 655; p<.05). Also, the results revealed a significant influence on the levels of locus of control on environmental quality of life. (F =24.66, df= 655; p<0.05). Furthermore, a significant gender difference was obtained on environmental quality of life (t=7.28,df= 655;p<0.05). The study concluded that the two independent variables (locus of control and perceived health) have influence on environmental quality of life. 2023-05-13T16:51:14Z 2023-05-13T16:51:14Z 2015 Thesis Adediran,A.G (2015).
