Abstract
The aim of this study is to analyze the relation between the control locus and the vulnerability of the football player to injuries. The sample of this study consists of 209 professional and semi-professional football players. We have performed an evaluation of the control locus through the Rotter Control Locus Scale (1966), adapted by Perez (1984). Moreover, we have registered the number and the seriousness of injuries observed in a season as well as those occurred in the previous season. Our results point towards a light trend to diminished vulnerability in players with control locus more internal.
