abstract: The paper examines the role of learning climate (autonomy supportive vs.
controlling), intrinsic motivation resulting from the three basic needs satisfaction, as
posited by Self Determination Theory of motivation, self-perception of choice and
self-awareness on students’ study engagement. The data were collected from 529
undergraduates Muslim students (Females = 57.7% and 81.7% Malaysians)
representing several study disciplines. Standardized instruments were employed to
measure the constructs of learning climate, basic needs, perceived selfdetermination,
and study engagement. Results provided strong support to the SDT
proposition suggesting that an autonomy supportive learning climate significantly
contributed to intrinsic need satisfaction of autonomy, competence, and relatedness.
It was also found that the autonomy supportive learning climate and satisfaction of
competency need contributed to study engagement. The study provides good
empirical support to the SDT propositions from a non-Western cultural context.
