Bentham or Aristotle in the Development Process? An Empirical Investigation of Capabilities and Subjective Well-Being (2015, background): “Similarly, Tay and Diener (2011) find that life evaluation is more closely associated with basic needs fulfillment and country-level economic conditions, while positive and negative affect are more closely linked with individual-level conditions (social ties, respect, and autonomy).”

Debt and Subjective Well-being: The Other Side of the Income-Happiness Coin (2016, background): “A lack of financial resources can also limit the extent to which individuals fulfill life goals and fundamental needs, such as autonomy and social relations, which are key for promoting SWB (Sheldon et al. 2009; Tay and Diener 2011).”
Advances and Open Questions in the Science of Subjective Well-Being (2018, neutral): “Consistent with Maslow’s theory, Gallup World Poll data showed that the life evaluation and positive feelings of people in poor nations were more strongly associated with the satisfaction of basic needs than was the case for people living in the Northern Europe/Anglo region (Tay & Diener, 2011).”
Basic psychological need satisfaction, need frustration, and need strength across four cultures (2015, background): “Further, several multi-country studies (e.g., Church et al. 2012; Sheldon et al. 2001; Tay and Diener 2011) also reported evidence for the positive link between the satisfaction of the three needs and well-being.”
Belonging Mediates Effects of Student-University Fit on Well-Being, Motivation, and Dropout Intention (2018, background): “According to the buffer hypothesis, a positive relationship with one’s social group and social support can act as a buffer to stress, positively affecting individuals’ well-being (for evidence, see Cohen & Wills, 1985; Tay & Diener, 2011; Walton & Cohen, 2011).”
Clarifying the Concept of Well-Being: Psychological Need Satisfaction as the Common Core Connecting Eudaimonic and Subjective Well-Being (2019, background): “…needs alongside indicators of SWB in large-scale cross-national studies, sometimes as outcome variables (Conzo, Aassve, Fuochi, & Mencarini, 2017), but more typically aiming to examine whether these needs contribute to SWB (Diener, Ng, et al., 2010; Ng & Diener, 2014; Tay & Diener, 2011).”
Perceived organizational support and employees’ well-being: the mediating role of organizational dehumanization (2017, background): “More generally, need fulfilment was found to be consistently associated with subjective well-being across world regions (Tay & Diener, 2011).”
Need Satisfaction and Well-Being (2013, background): “…and negative affect, life satisfaction) or to composites of hedonic and eudaimonic well-being (e.g., personal growth, meaning in life) (Chirkov & Ryan, 2001; Chirkov et al., 2003, 2005; Levesque et al., 2004; Oishi, Diener, Lucas, & Suh, 1999; Sheldon et al., 2001, 2004; Tay & Diener, 2011).”
Corporate social responsibility as a source of employee satisfaction (2012, background): “…while also feeling safe and secure, proud of their company, similar to other employees, and helpful to others. need contributes separately to subjective well-being, but need fulfillment is only rewarding up to the point of satisfaction (e.g., Deci & Ryan, 2000; Murray, 1938; Tay & Diener, 2011).”
Basic psychological need theory: Advancements, critical themes, and future directions (2020, neutral): “In the Tay and Diener (2011) study, safety/security satisfaction and ARC independently contributed to the prediction of wellbeing.”
General Need for Autonomy and Subjective Well-Being: A Meta-Analysis of Studies in the US and East Asia (2017, neutral): “Although not included in our meta-analysis because the autonomy measurement did not closely adhere to the SDT paradigm, a study by Tay and Diener (2011) found that feeling autonomous was associated with all three aspects of well-being and that this relationship applied to all cultures.”
University Students’ Subjective Well-being: The Role of Autonomy Support from Parents, Friends, and the Romantic Partner (2012, neutral): “As research by Tay and Diener (2011) demonstrated, individuals’ psychological needs are important sources of SWB.”
A Conceptual and Methodological Framework for Psychometric Isomorphism (2014, methodology): “For example, Tay and Diener (2011) used simultaneous estimation (i.e., multilevel IRT) to examine the ordering of individual need fulfillment (e.g., basic, safety, social, mastery, and autonomy needs) and the extent to which country effects (additionally) bear on this ordering in the same manner.”
