The self-determination theory includes the need for autonomy as one of the most important human needs to be fulfilled in order to ensure intrinsic motivation on the job (Deci & Ryan, 2000).

In the United States, because of the stigma associated with COVID-19, the two million small businesses owned by Asians are at particular risk of losing customers (Kwon, 2020). Since the U.S. declared a national emergency on March 13, Asian-owned businesses saw a 60% decrease in revenue (JP Morgan Chase and Company, 2020).
