9. RESEARCH STUDY 1.1: Deci and Ryan (1985, 2001) have proposed that there are three
fundamental needs that are required for human growth and fulfillment: relatedness,
autonomy, and competence. Susan predicts that students who have these needs met in
their psychology class feel happier and more satisfied with the class. She collects data and

fulfillment is an example of which of the following?
