Abstract(s)
O florescimento psicológico diz respeito à expansão do potencial do sujeito e à exploração das suas virtudes e competências intrínsecas (Seligman, 2011). As orientações para as atividades – hedónicas e eudaimónicas – são um veículo para a promoção do florescimento psicológico do individuo, tal como também a satisfação das necessidades psicológicas básicas - autonomia, competência e relacionamento (Huta, 2016; Deci & Ryan, 2010). O principal objetivo desta investigação foi analisar qual das duas orientações motivacionais melhor prediz cada uma das dimensões do florescimento psicológico. E, procurou-se perceber de que forma esta relação é mediada pelas necessidades psicológicas básicas, em praticantes de música. Participaram 446 músicos, com idades compreendidas entre 18 e 75 anos, (M= 34%; DP= 14,5%), sendo que 59,2% são do sexo feminino e 40,8% do sexo masculino (n= 182). Foram utilizados três instrumentos devidamente adaptados e validados para esta população, nomeadamente Hedonic and Eudaimonic Motives for Activities – Revised, PERMA-Profiler e Basic Psychological Needs Scale. Os principais resultados indicaram que, unicamente, as orientações eudaimónicas para a música mostraram predizer as emoções positivas, a realização, o significado e o bem-estar geral, dimensões presentes no florescimento psicológico, em praticante musicais. Para além disso, foi possível identificar-se o papel primordial da satisfação de competência, como mediador, na relação entre as orientações eudaimónicas e diversas dimensões do florescimento psicológico, sendo que mediou totalmente esta relação, em praticantes de música.
The flourishing concerns the expansion of the subject's potential and the exploration of their intrinsic competencies and virtues (Seligman, 2011). The orientations for activities – hedonic and eudaimonic – are a vehicle for promoting the individual's flourishing, as well as the satisfaction of basic psychological needs – autonomy, competence, and relationship (Huta, 2016; Deci & Ryan, 2010). The main goal of this investigation was to analyze which of the two motivational orientations best predicted each of the dimensions of flourishing. And, we tried to understand how this relationship is mediated by basic psychological needs in music practitioners. The participants were 446 musicians, aged between 18 and 75 years old, (M = 34%; SD = 14.5%), with 59.2% female and 40.8% male (n = 182). There were three instruments adapted and validated for this population were used, namely Hedonic and Eudaimonic Motives for Activities – Revised, PERMA-Profiler, and Basic Psychological Need Scale. The main results indicated that, only, the eudaimonic orientations showed to predict positive emotions, achievement, meaning, and general well-being – dimensions present in flourishing, in music practitioners. Furthermore, it was possible to identify the primary role of competence satisfaction, as a mediator, in the relationship between eudaimonic orientations and various dimensions of psychological flourishing, which fully mediated this relationship, in music practitioners.
