Autotelic personality (AP) is known to have a positive effect on the quality of life. We hypothesized that inferiority feelings may be less pronounced in individuals with AP than in those with an average (AV) or a nonautotelic personality (NAP).
This study aimed to compare inferiority feelings among three personality groups: An AP group, an AV group, and an NAP group.
This study was a cross-sectional survey among 148 undergraduate students aged 18-24 undertaken in Okayama, Japan. Participants completed the Flow Experience Checklist and Inferiority Feelings Scale.
With the number of flow activities, participants were classified into three groups: 3+ for AP (n = 28, 18.9%), 1-2 for AV (n = 72, 48.6%), and 0 for NAP (n = 48, 32.4%). One-way analysis of variance showed significant differences among the three groups with respect to the Inferiority Feelings Scale. Multiple comparison analysis using Tukey's test showed that inferiority feelings in AP were significantly less pronounced than in the NAP group.
The results of this study indicated that AP was lesser than NAP in association with pronounced inferiority feelings.
已知自足人格（AP）对生活质量有积极影响。我们假设，与具有平均人格（AV）或非自足人格（NAP）的个体相比，具有自足人格的个体自卑感可能没那么明显。
本研究旨在比较三组人格个体的自卑感：自足人格组、平均人格组和非自足人格组。
本研究是在日本冈山对148名年龄在18至24岁的本科生进行的横断面调查。参与者完成了心流体验清单和自卑感量表。
根据心流活动的数量，参与者被分为三组：自足人格组为3项及以上（n = 28，18.9%），平均人格组为1 - 2项（n = 72，48.6%），非自足人格组为0项（n = 48，32.4%）。单因素方差分析显示，三组在自卑感量表方面存在显著差异。使用Tukey检验的多重比较分析表明，自足人格组的自卑感明显低于非自足人格组。
本研究结果表明，自足人格与明显自卑感的关联小于非自足人格。
