Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between basic psychological needs, motivational regulations in exercise, and social physique anxiety. Voluntarily participated 420 individuals (mean age 28.33±6.21), 193 males and 227 females, who exercise (30 minutes 3 days a week for at least one year) between the ages of 25-45 were examined in the study. The Social Physique Anxiety Inventory, Behavioral Regulations in Exercise Scale, and Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise Scale were used as data collection tools. Pearson Correlation Analysis and Linear Regression Analysis were used to analyze the data. There was a negative relationship between basic psychological needs and intrinsic regulation and social physique anxiety; there was a positive relationship between introjected regulation, external regulation, amotivation, and social physique anxiety. While intrinsic regulation predicted social physique anxiety negatively, introjected regulation and external regulation positively predicted social physique anxiety. It was found that satisfaction of the need for competence and autonomy negatively predicted social physique anxiety. This research suggested that basic psychological needs and motivational regulations for exercise could play an important role in social physique anxiety.
