The results from the partly descriptive and partly explanatory research revealed that external locus of control and comprehensibility, autonomy and self control, internal locus of control and self control, internal locus of control and commitment and challenge, self efficacy and meaningfulness. Negative correlations existed between autonomy and self efficacy and comprehensibility, males and females differed in their self control and external control, black africans had the lowest score on external control, and there was no relationship between age and the constructs. Some conclusions and recommendations were made regarding the optimisation of salutogenic functioning among respondents.
