The results also indicate  that a person’s achievement motive requires situational incentives, such as the chance to excel, associated with feelings of competence to predict flow and well-being.

The person-situation interaction is one of the most prominent theoretical concepts of motivation psychology

To conclude, we have learned at least three things from
our data. First, that it is worth analyzing individual motive
dispositions when analyzing the outcomes of basic need
satisfaction. In doing so, a significant amount of further
variance in optimal flow and well-being can be explained.
Interventions such as changing environmental characteristics
(e.g., specific task characteristics) in order to enable
individuals to satisfy their basic needs could be tailored to
the individuals’ motives. For example, creating situations
in which the experience of competence is enhanced (e.g.,
through regular feedback), is less beneficial in terms of
well-being for individuals with a low achievement motive.
Such individuals might have a high affiliation motive and
therefore benefit more from a situation in which the
experience of relatedness is enhanced (e.g., through selfdisclosing
activities).

Finally, we would like to draw the conclusion that
although we agree in principle with Ockham’s razor, which
states that it is pointless to do with more that which can be
done with less (‘‘plurality must never be posited without
necessity’’), this principle cannot be applied to human
needs and their consequences for optimal motivation and
well-being.
