We performed a daily diary study to examine the mediating role of autonomy need satisfaction and competence need satisfaction in the relationships between job characteristics (i.e., job resources, challenge and hindrance demands) and strain and performance. For 10 consecutive working days, 194 employees reported on their daily job resources, challenge and hindrance demands, task performance, strain level, and satisfaction of the needs for competence and autonomy. Multilevel path modeling demonstrated that the within-person relationships between job resources, challenge and hindrance demands, and strain are mediated by autonomy need satisfaction, but not by competence need satisfaction. However, the relationships between job resources and hindrance demands, and performance are mediated by both competence and autonomy need satisfaction. Our findings show that organizations may benefit from designing jobs that provide employees with the opportunity to satisfy their basic needs for competence and autonomy. (PsycINFO Database Record
我们进行了一项日常日记研究，以检验自主性需求满足和能力需求满足在工作特征（即工作资源、挑战和阻碍需求）与紧张和绩效之间的关系中的中介作用。在连续 10 个工作日内，194 名员工报告了他们每天的工作资源、挑战和阻碍需求、任务绩效、紧张程度以及能力和自主性需求的满足感。多层次路径模型表明，工作资源、挑战和阻碍需求与紧张之间的个体内关系由自主性需求满足感介导，但不由能力需求满足感介导。然而，工作资源与阻碍需求和绩效之间的关系由能力和自主性需求满足感共同介导。我们的研究结果表明，组织可能受益于设计工作，为员工提供满足其能力和自主性基本需求的机会。
