Abstract

Resource scarcity was found to affect individuals' life history strategy development, but mainly from the perspective of tangible material resources. Using a three-wave longitudinal design, we investigated the link between intangible time resource scarcity (i.e., time poverty) and life history strategy, and whether basic psychological need satisfaction was the key mediator of the relationship between them. A total of 687 Chinese college students were surveyed three times during one semester with six-week intervals. Results of cross-lagged panel models suggested that high levels of perceived time poverty would lead to frustration in satisfying individuals' basic psychological needs, especially in fulfilling their competence need (rather than autonomy or relatedness), thus accelerate individuals' (fast) life history strategies. This study disentangled the differential mediating roles of different psychological needs satisfaction (i.e., autonomy, competence, relatedness) in these longitudinal associations, highlighting how intangible resource-scarce environment is linked with life history strategy. The current findings provide valuable information to inform interventions aiming to buffer the potentially detrimental effects of time poverty.

没有时间慢下来时间贫乏通过满足基本心理需求预测快速生活史策略
研究发现,资源稀缺会影响个体的生活史策略发展,但主要是从有形物质资源的角度来考虑的。我们采用三波纵向设计,研究了无形的时间资源稀缺(即时间贫困)与生活史策略之间的联系,以及基本心理需求满足是否是二者关系的关键中介。我们在一个学期内对 687 名中国大学生进行了三次调查,每次间隔六周。交叉滞后面板模型的结果表明,高水平的时间贫困感知会导致个体在满足基本心理需求方面的挫败感,尤其是在满足能力需求(而非自主性或亲缘性需求)方面,从而加速个体的(快速)生活史策略。本研究揭示了不同心理需求满足(即自主性、能力、相关性)在这些纵向关联中的不同中介作用,突出了无形的资源稀缺环境与生活史策略之间的联系。目前的研究结果为旨在缓冲时间贫困的潜在不利影响的干预措施提供了有价值的信息。

期刊介绍: Personality and Individual Differences is devoted to the publication of articles (experimental, theoretical, review) which aim to integrate as far as possible the major factors of personality with empirical paradigms from experimental, physiological, animal, clinical, educational, criminological or industrial psychology or to seek an explanation for the causes and major determinants of individual differences in concepts derived from these disciplines. The editors are concerned with both genetic and environmental causes, and they are particularly interested in possible interaction effects.
