TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Self-determined choices and consequences: the relationship between basic psychological needs satisfactions and aggression in late adolescents JO - Journal of general psychology A1 - Kuzucu, Yaşar A1 - Simşek, Omer Faruk SP - 110 EP - 129 VL - 140 IS - 2 N2 - This research examined the mediatory role of life purpose and career indecision in the relationship between the satisfaction of basic psychological needs and aggression. Data were collected from high school students (n = 466) and results showed that life purpose and career indecision fully mediated the relationship between basic psychological needs satisfaction and aggression. These findings suggested that unsatisfied basic psychological needs foster late adolescents' aggression by promoting less clear life purposes and career indecision.
