RESUMO: Self-determination theory (SDT) provides a framework for understanding the factors that promote motivation and healthy psychological and
behavioral functioning. In this authoritative work, the codevelopers of the theory comprehensively examine SDT's conceptual underpinnings
(including its six mini-theories), empirical evidence base, and practical applications across the lifespan. The volume synthesizes a vast body of
research on how supporting--or thwarting--people's basic needs for competence, relatedness, and autonomy affects their development and
well-being. Chapters cover implications for practice and policy in education, health care, psychotherapy, sport, and the workplace.
