dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to empirically investigate the relationship between
psychological need satisfaction and intrinsic motivation as proposed by self-determination
theory. Three competing hypotheses regarding the relations between need satisfaction and
intrinsic motivation were tested: additive, synergistic and balance. Two cross-sectional studies
involving 1254 employees from a broad range of Norwegian service organizations partly
supported the first two hypotheses. Though the relationship between satisfaction of the needs
for autonomy and relatedness with intrinsic motivation were significant, the one with
satisfaction of the need for competence was not. Instead, competence was only related to
intrinsic motivation when autonomy was high. Implications for practice and future research
are discussed. | no_NO |
