This study empirically confirmed the relationships between the degree to which students satisfied three basic needs (competence, relatedness, and autonomy) and the strength of their commitments to the university they attended and to obtaining a baccalaureate degree. A questionnaire was administered online to 1257 students at two 4-year universities. Regression analysis yielded statistically significant associations between the three needs and Institutional Commitment and Degree Commitment, explaining more than 20% of the variance in the latter two variables.
本研究通过实证证实了学生对三种基本需求（能力、关联性和自主性）的满足程度与他们对所就读大学的归属感以及获得学士学位的决心之间的关系。研究人员通过在线问卷的方式，对两所四年制大学的1257名学生进行了调查。回归分析结果显示，这三种需求与学校归属感和学位决心之间存在显著的统计学关联，能够解释后两个变量中超过20%的差异。
