Development of self discipline – UGC NET Question

When students monitor and control their behaviour based on internalised norms, it develops self-discipline (internal regulation).

Option A:
Imposed discipline depends on external authority, not students’ internal regulation.

Option B:
Punitive discipline relies on punishment, which doesn’t build internal self-control by itself.

Option C:
Self discipline is internal regulation aligned with norms/values, exactly the goal described.

Option D:
External discipline is maintained by outside forces/supervision, unlike self-regulation.
