A major focus of their work is on Self-Determination Theory (SDT) which is a theory of motivation concerned with supporting people?s natural or intrinsic tendencies
to behave in effective and healthy ways. The theory has been elaborated, refined, researched, and practiced by a network of scholars, researchers, and practitioners around the world.Access at: http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/pdfdocs/deciinforesource.pdf 27kb; 3pp
