Abstract: 
Research in the field of psychology is constantly evolving, and one of the important areas of study is the influence of social support and basic psychological needs on well-being. Social support encompasses emotional exchange, practical assistance, and the sharing of information to help individuals cope with life's challenges. Basic psychological needs refer to fulfilling an individual's requirements for self-determination, self-satisfaction, and a sense of ownership. These factors significantly impact personal well-being.This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of the studies of these two factors and offer insights into future research and development.
