Question 3

At a school sports match, Ava scratches her initials into a wooden team bench with some other spectators. She says, "The staff can't see us from here, so nobody will know who did it." Later, when the group suggests pulling apart some of the sports equipment, Ava refuses and says, "I decide whether I do it, and I'll have to answer for the damage."

Explain Ava's behaviour using locus of control and morality.
