“…Research shows that greater satisfaction of all three needs correlates very strongly with wellbeing, feelings of personal integrity, and feeling volitional (for reviews, see Deci and Ryan, 2000 ; Ryan and Deci, 2017 ). Satisfactions of these needs tend to be highly correlated (e.g., Sheldon and Hilpert, 2012 ; Chen et al, 2015 ; Vaughn, 2017 , 2019 ; Vaughn et al, 2020 ), and balanced satisfaction of these needs appears to be important for wellbeing, both within persons ( Sheldon and Niemiec, 2006 ) and between life domains ( Milyavskaya et al, 2009 ). With that said, “in different settings, any one of the three needs will emerge to ‘take the lead’ in terms of its association with wellness outcomes, even as the other two remain important” ( Ryan and Deci, 2017 , p. 247).…”
