Answer 1

The correct answer is B. Competence, relatedness and self-determination theory.

All these terms are related and included in the SDT (Self-determination theory), founded by Edward Deci and Richard Ryan. Competence helps us to achieve the mastery of tasks that are important to us. Relatedness : we need each other, so it's important to have a connection with people. Self-determination theory is motivational theory.
