The effects of autonomy support on salivary alpha-amylase: The role of individual differences

Abstract: a b s t r a c tThe empirical evidence for the relationship between autonomy-supportive environments and physiological stress is inconsistent. Whereas some studies report a decrease in stress in autonomy-supportive environments, other studies show a negative effect of autonomy on physiological stress. As previous research has not considered individual differences within this relationship, the present research aims to close this empirical gap by proposing that an implicit autonomy disposition, which is defined a… Show more

“…Again, supporting the matching hypothesis, students with a strong autonomy motive (assessed using DeCharms and Plimpton’s scoring system) showed significantly higher intrinsic motivation in an autonomy‐supportive group than in an autonomy‐restrictive group or in a control group, and compared to participants with a weak autonomy disposition. Sieber, Schüler, and Wegner () continued this line of research and tested physiological stress as a further indicator of well‐being. In an experiment with a student sample, the authors tested whether the autonomy disposition (DeCharms and Plimpton’s scoring system) moderates the effect of different teaching styles (controlling, autonomy‐supportive, and neutral; experimentally induced using vignettes) on the acute physiological stress response (salivary alpha‐amylase).…”

“…The results fit well into our theoretical considerations and are in accordance with a series of previous studies conducted to test the Affiliation Motive × Need for Relatedness and Achievement Motive × Need for Competence interactions. Whereas the authors’ analyses in the domains of affiliation and achievement have focused on self‐reported facets of motivation (e.g., intrinsic motivation, flow) and well‐being (e.g., affect; Schüler & Brandstätter, ; Schüler et al, ), the studies in the autonomy domain are broader and additionally include objectively assessed physiological stress responses (Schüler et al, ; Sieber, Schüler, et al, ; Sieber, Wegner, et al, ). Empirical support for physiological responses in the affiliation and achievement domains has yet to be provided, and long‐term effects of Motive × Need Satisfaction interactions on physiological responses still need to be tested.…”

“…In ihren Arbeiten zur Passungshypothese weisen Schü-ler und Kollegen Schüler, Sheldon & Fröhlich, 2010;Schüler et al, 2014;Sheldon & Schüler, 2011;Sieber, Schüler & Wegner, 2016) unter anderem darauf hin, dass individuelle Unterschiede in der Ausprägung impliziter Motive (McClelland, 1985) beeinflussen, wie stark Personen von Autonomieunterstützung in der Sportumwelt profitieren. Das Autonomiemotiv bezeichnet dabei eine stabile Prä-ferenz, Freiheit zu erfahren und das chronische Bestreben sich selbst in diversen Situationen als handelnde Akteurin zu erleben (DeCharms, 1968;Schüler et al, 2014).…”

“…Zusammenfassend lässt sich der differentielle Effekt von Autonomieunterstützung festhalten: Nur Personen mit einem hohen Autonomiemotiv, nicht aber Personen mit schwachem Autonomiemotiv profitierten von Autonomieunterstützung im Schulsport. Dies entspricht vorliegenden Befunden zur Passungshypothese (Schüler & Brandstät-ter, 2013;Schüler et al, 2010Schüler et al, , 2014Sheldon & Schüler, 2011) und erweitert die Selbstbestimmungstheorie (Deci & Ryan, 1985) (Sieber et al, 2016 Eine Möglichkeit hierzu sind maßgeschneiderte Coachingmaßnahmen und Beratungen, ganz im Sinne einer "tailored-intervention" wie sie in der Gesundheitspsychologie und Medizin breit diskutiert wird (Noar, Benac & Harris, 2007;Ryan & Lauver, 2002). Falls direktes individuelles Coaching nicht möglich ist wie beispielsweise im Schulsetting ist das Kreieren von Sportumwelten, die die Befriedigung aller Basisbedürfnisse (also Autonomie, Kompetenz und Zugehörigkeit) zulassen, zu empfehlen.…”
