With increasing concern about mental health issues and active lifestyles among university students, understanding the interplay between different physical activity motivations and various dimensions of psychological well-being is important. The present study aims to explore the canonical relationship between physical activity motivations based on self-determination theory and psychological well-being according to Ryff's model in university students. Nine hundred and sixty-six Chinese university students participated in this study. A canonical correlation analysis was conducted using six variables of motivations as predictors of six variables of psychological well-being. The canonical correlation analysis yielded two canonical functions. The first canonical function, which was primary, indicated that intrinsic motivation, integrated regulation, identified regulation, and introjected regulation contributed the most to psychological well-being. The second canonical function indicated that a decrease in external motivation and amotivation accounted for an increase in personal growth. This study underscores the importance of elucidating the underlying motivations driving physical activity behaviors in order to enhance psychological well-being in this population.
随着人们对大学生心理健康问题和积极生活方式的日益关注，了解不同体育活动动机与各种心理幸福感维度之间的相互作用非常重要。本研究旨在根据 Ryff 的模型，探索基于自我决定理论的体育活动动机与大学生心理幸福感之间的典型关系。966 名中国大学生参与了这项研究。使用六个动机变量作为六个心理幸福感变量的预测变量进行典型相关分析。典型相关分析产生了两个典型函数。第一个典型函数是主要的，表明内在动机、整合调节、认同调节和内射调节对心理幸福感的贡献最大。第二个典型函数表明，外在动机和动机缺乏的减少会导致个人成长的增加。这项研究强调了阐明驱动体育活动行为的潜在动机的重要性，以提高这一人群的心理幸福感。
