Understand the core concept of Self-Determination Theory (SDT) by Richard Ryan and Edward Deci, which focuses on human motivation and personality.
Identify the three basic psychological needs according to SDT: competence, relatedness, and autonomy.
Clarify the meaning of each need: Competence refers to the need to feel effective and capable in one's activities; Relatedness involves the need to feel connected and belonging to others; Autonomy is the need to feel in control of one's own behaviors and goals.
Recognize that self-esteem, self-actualization, and safety are important psychological concepts but are not the primary needs identified in SDT.
Conclude that the correct answer, which completes the list of primary needs in SDT, is autonomy.
