This study examined the within-person relationships among daily self-esteem, felt authenticity (i.e., the operation of one's "true self"), and satisfaction of psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. We also included measures of affect to control for the variance these constructs might share with affect. Over a 2-week period, 116 participants responded daily to measures of these variables. Multilevel random-coefficients modeling revealed that authenticity, autonomy, competence, and relatedness were all positively and significantly related to daily reports of self-esteem, even when we controlled for the contributions of pleasant and unpleasant affect. We discuss the roles of authenticity and psychological needs in daily feelings of self-worth.
本研究考察了每日自尊、真实感（即“真实自我”的运作）以及自主、能力和关系等心理需求满意度之间的个体内关系。我们还纳入了情感测量指标，以控制这些构念可能与情感共享的方差。在为期两周的时间里，116名参与者每日对这些变量进行测量。多层次随机系数模型显示，即使我们控制了愉悦和不愉快情感的影响，真实感、自主性、能力和关系与每日自尊报告均呈显著正相关。我们讨论了真实感和心理需求在日常自我价值感中的作用。
