In a sense, the theory of locus of control would reinforce what you
said
here. In fact, if you fully explained your theories of the
professionalisation of everything, you'd provide an operational
definition
of the theory.

Quite right, Roger.
At the risk of speaking for KMAN (again?); what I hear hear him saying
is more a case of "I don't buy this 'external locus of control' pocus"
because, as you so correctly point out, KMAN is totally into the
internal locus of control thing.

Hm. Sort of. It's just that when it comes to learning, every human being by
virtue of being a human being has an internal locus of control. The fact
that some people come to believe they do not have this - that they must hire
a professional so that they can learn something new - comes as a result of
distorted thinking. As to what causes that distorted thinking, well, that
would be an interesting and very long discussion that might well include a
dialogue about the professionalization of recreation :-)
