Background & Aims: The main purpose of this research is to determine the role of satisfaction and failure of basic needs in predicting self-determination and psychological distress of female high school students in district 13 of Tehran. Materials & Methods: Based on the purpose, this research is considered an applied research, and in terms of the data collection method, it is a descriptive survey research of the correlation analysis type. The statistical population of the research is made up of 230 female high school students in the 13th district of Tehran, studying in 1402, who were randomly selected. Ganye's (2003) basic needs satisfaction, Kessler et al.'s (2002) psychological distress, and the self-determined basic needs satisfaction test of Garia-Desi and Ryan (2000) were used. SPSS23 software was used to test research hypotheses, correlation test and regression analysis. Results: The results show that the satisfaction and failure of basic needs with a significant level (0.364) predicts the psychological distress of adolescents. Also, the satisfaction and failure of basic needs with a significant level (0.276) predicts the self-determination of adolescents. Therefore, ensuring that adolescents are properly supported and their basic needs are met can help strengthen their self-determination and healthy psychological development. Conclusion: Satisfying the needs of teenagers provides the necessary conditions for the growth and well-being of a person and explains the broad and wide base of behaviors. The scale of satisfaction and failure of basic psychological needs is a valid tool for use in Iranian society.
