Perceived control refers to the belief that one has the power to influence the events and outcomes in their life. It is often linked to happiness because feeling in control can lead to a greater sense of autonomy, self-efficacy, and confidence.

This is because they feel empowered to make choices that align with their values and goals, and are more likely to take actions that lead to positive outcomes.
