Perceived autonomy-supportive and structuring styles at Time 1 (T1) predicted higher BPN satisfaction at Time 2 (T2), which, in turn, related to more positive experiences and perceived learning in class and greater intention for physical activity beyond class at Time 3 (T3). Conversely, controlling and chaotic styles at T1 were linked to BPN frustration at T2 and poorer outcomes at T3. BPN satisfaction (frustration) at T2 also showed a longitudinal associations with higher (lower) perceptions of autonomy-supportive/structuring, and lower (higher) controlling/chaotic styles at T3. Findings highlight long-term, bidirectional dynamics with implications for teacher education. The findings indicate that teacher training programs should foster autonomy-supportive and structuring styles while reducing controlling and chaotic ones to promote adaptive motivational patterns and improve student outcomes.
