Enquadramento: As investigações no âmbito do bem-estar mental continuam em constante expansão. Neste sentido, alguns traços de personalidade têm vindo a ser associados a este conceito, como é o caso do flow disposicional e das orientações para as atividades. Objetivos: O presente estudo procurou investigar se a) as orientações para as atividades e o flow disposicional predizem significativamente o bem-estar mental; b) se existem diferenças significativas entre praticantes e não praticantes de tuning em termos de orientações (hedónicas, eudaimónicas e extrínsecas), disposição para o flow e bem-estar mental e c) a possibilidade de o flow disposicional assumir um papel mediador na relação entre as orientações para as atividades e o bem-estar mental. Método: A amostra foi constituída por 200 condutores praticantes de tuning (n=100) e não praticantes (n=100) sendo que as suas idades variaram entre os 18 e os 75 anos de idade (M =26,89; DP = 9,352). O flow disposicional foi medido através da Escala de Flow Disposicional-2, as orientações para as atividades através da Escala de Motivos Hedónicos, Eudaimónicos e Extrínsecos para as Atividades e o bem-estar mental através da Escala de Bem-Estar Mental de Warwick-Edinburgh. Resultados: Foi possível verificar que as dimensões “perceção de desempenho” e “concentração” relativas ao flow disposicional predizem significativamente o bem-estar mental. Verificou-se também que em todas as dimensões das variáveis em estudo se verificaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre os grupos, à exceção da dimensão de flow disposicional “envolvimento na tarefa”. Constatou-se a existência de efeito mediador do flow disposicional na relação entre as orientações para as atividades e o bem-estar mental.
Background: Research in the field of mental well-being continues to expand rapidly. In this regard, some personality traits have been associated with this concept, such as dispositional flow and activity orientations. Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate: a) whether activity orientations and dispositional flow significantly predict mental well-being; b) whether there are significant differences between tuning practitioners and non-practitioners in terms of orientations (hedonic, eudaimonic, and extrinsic), dispositional flow, and mental well-being; and c) whether dispositional flow plays a mediating role in the relationship between activity orientations and mental well-being. Method: The sample consisted of 200 tuning drivers, 100 practitioners and 100 non-practitioners, with ages ranging from 18 to 75 years (M = 26.89; SD = 9.352). Dispositional flow was measured using the Dispositional Flow Scale-2, activity orientations were measured using the Hedonic, Eudaimonic, and Extrinsic Motivations for Activities Scale, and mental well-being was measured using the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale. Results: The findings showed that the dimensions " unambiguous feedback" and "concentration" related to dispositional flow significantly predicted mental well-being. It was also found that there were statistically significant differences between groups across all dimensions of the variables studied, except for the dispositional flow dimension "action-awareness merging." The existence of the mediating effect of dispositional flow in the relationship between orientations for activities and mental well-being was verified.
