自我决定理论根据目标的内容将其划分为内部目标和外部目标两类。内部目标把个体内在的自我发展和成长的需要作为追求的目标,这些需要的满足能促进个体的人格及认知的成长与完善;外部目标把获得外部奖赏或社会赞许、通过获得外部的价值给别人留下良好和深刻的印象作为追求的目标。本文探讨了不同的目标追求对幸福感的影响。通过手机客户端问卷宝调查了15870名用户,结果发现:内部目标的追求可以增强个体的幸福感尤其是意义幸福感,增强积极情绪,降低消极情绪,与身体健康呈正相关关系;而外在目标的追求主要增强享乐幸福感,但同时提高了消极情绪体验,降低了积极情绪体验,也与身体的不良评估相关联。对于内部目标的追求总体上带来了个体更高的身心健康水平。
