Method: The participants were 601 Estonian (56% girls) and 669 Spanish (52% girls) secondary students. Results: Multigroup single-indicator structural equation modeling analysis revealed that participative, attuning, guiding, clarifying, and demanding predicted the satisfaction of each basic psychological need, according to the Estonian and Spanish students’ perspective. Domineering approach negatively predicted autonomy satisfaction in the eyes of Estonian students, while abandoning approach predicted the satisfaction of each basic psychological need negatively as perceived by Estonian and Spanish students. Conclusions: Results underscore the cross-cultural relevance in explaining the role of teachers’ (de-)motivating approaches in the eyes of students, supporting/undermining students’ need satisfaction in physical education. Therefore, these findings set the scene for development of effective guidance for teaching training adapted to culture, aimed at providing teachers with the strategies they need to apply the most optimal motivating teaching styles in their physical education lessons. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 1.8 2024 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH 232 / 762 = 0.304 2024 Q2 T1 SPORT SCIENCES 65 / 134 = 0.485 2024 Q2 T2 0.724 2024 Education 2024 Q1 Orthopedics and Sports Medicine 2024 Q2 Physical Therapy, Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation 2024 Q2 Sports Science 2024 Q3 4.0 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion García-González, Luis Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-8115-0649 Burgueño, Rafa Tilga, Henri Koka, Andre Abós, Ángel Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-1543-5109 3001 187 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
