    abstract = {The purpose of the present research was to examine the relationship between 
  students perceived school culture, basic psychological needs, intrinsic motivation 
  and academic achievement in a causal model. The 296 high school students (159 
  females and 137 males) in Tabriz, North-West of Iran, participated in this research 
  and completed the students perceived school culture questionnaire based on Hofstede’s 
  cultural dimensions (femininity, uncertainty avoidance, collectivism and power 
  distance), basic psychological needs and intrinsic motivation. The results of 
  the path analysis showed that fulfillment of basic psychological needs and intrinsic 
  motivation has positive effect on academic achievement. Uncertainty avoidance 
  and power distance have also negative effect on fulfillment of psychological 
  needs but the influence of femininity on this variable was positive. Also, collectivism 
  has no significant effect on it. In general, the findings showed that if school 
  culture supports students autonomy, they will experience fulfillment of their 
  basic psychological needs and attain higher intrinsic motivation and academic 
  achievement.}
