Considering the effect of implicit motives, the current study examined the link between well-being in important life domains, that is, job and relationship, and the satisfaction of needs as proposed by self-determination theory. Data on domain-specific well-being, satisfaction of needs for competence and relatedness, and the implicit achievement and affiliation motives were assessed from 259 German and Cameroonian participants. The achievement motive moderated the relation between competence and job satisfaction. Furthermore, the affiliation motive moderated the association between relatedness and relationship satisfaction. Satisfaction of the needs for competence and relatedness is linked to higher levels of job and relationship satisfaction, respectively, among individuals with strong implicit motives. Effects were found regardless of participants' culture of origin. Findings indicate that implicit motives can be understood as weighting dispositions that affect how far experiences of competence and relatedness are linked with satisfaction in relevant life domains.
考虑到内隐动机的影响，本研究考察了重要生活领域（即工作和人际关系）的幸福感与自我决定理论所提出的需求满足之间的联系。来自 259 名德国和喀麦隆参与者的数据评估了特定领域的幸福感、能力和相关需求的满足程度以及内隐成就和亲和动机。成就动机调节了能力与工作满意度之间的关系。此外，亲和动机调节了关系与关系满意度之间的关联。对于具有强烈内隐动机的个体来说，能力和相关需求的满足与更高水平的工作和关系满意度相关。无论参与者的原籍文化如何，都发现了这些影响。研究结果表明，内隐动机可以被理解为权重倾向，影响着能力和相关体验与相关生活领域的满意度之间的联系程度。
