While many smartphone users experience social pressure to be available, only some perceive this as a burden. It was hypothesized that this form of social pressure is especially detrimental when it reduces self-control and hinders need satisfaction. Study 1 experimentally tested whether the fulfillment of intrinsic needs (i.e., autonomy, competence, and relatedness) in mobile communication mediates these associations. Results show that social pressure negatively affected autonomy and competence, but did not influence relatedness. Repeated-measures data from Study 2 suggest that social pressure leads to self-control failure, which is associated with reduced competence. This research is the first to develop and test a theoretical model of the effects of social pressure to be available on self-control, need satisfaction, and individuals’ well-being.

永久待命：社交压力对智能手机用户的自我控制，需求满意度和幸福感的影响

尽管许多智能手机用户会遇到社交压力，但只有部分人认为这是负担。据推测，这种形式的社会压力在降低自我控制能力并阻碍需求满足时尤其有害。研究1通过实验测试了移动通信中内在需求（即自治权，能力和相关性）的满足是否能够介导这些关联。结果表明，社会压力对自治和能力有负面影响，但对亲密关系没有影响。来自研究2的重复测量数据表明，社会压力导致自我控制失败，这与能力下降有关。这项研究是第一个开发和测试可用于自我控制，需要满足和个人幸福的社会压力影响的理论模型的研究。
