Similar to internal and external locus of control, the notion of ‘<b>origin and pawn</b>’ refers to people who believe they have control over their destiny (origin) versus those who feel powerless over the control of their destiny (pawn)<ref name="Kent_2007">Kent, M.

==='''Example'''===
<p>A quick example of origin and pawn is described in Martinez<ref name="Martinez" />, where the prince believes his abilities affect the outcome of his quest. On the other hand, the princess patiently believes she can only be rescued due to her own powerlessness. In the case of the prince, he is the origin; and the princess is the pawn.</p>
<p>
The example above resonates with the game ‘Prince of Persia’ (DOS version)<ref name="Prince_of_Persia">Terradillos, P. (2021, August 3). Why I Love Prince Of Persia. DEV Community 👩‍💻👨‍💻. https://dev.to/tehsis/why-i-love-prince-of-persia-46c3</ref>, where the player plays as the prince who controls all the movements to rescue the princess, who is being held captive. In this game, the princess is the perfect example of a <b>pawn</b> because she feels powerless and can only hope to be rescued.</p>
The prince, in which is controlled by the player, is a perfect example of an <b>origin</b>, due to the fact the player has full control over the strategies, movement and combat of the prince.
