Paper 2
A person’s understanding and beliefs about what is right and wrong.
Treat personality and morality as influences, not guarantees. An internal locus of control does not automatically make someone morally good.
Link each disposition to the behaviour being explained: self-esteem to conformity, locus of control to crowd behaviour, morality to pro-social or anti-social behaviour, and authoritarian personality to obedience.

Morality concerns understanding and judging what is right and wrong. Pro-social behaviour helps or benefits others, whereas anti-social behaviour harms others or violates accepted social rules.
