摘要

The challenging economic realities in many countries of the world and the struggle for limited scarce resources has led to renewed interests in the study of contentiousness. The current study examined the relationship between contentiousness and life satisfaction. It also investigated the moderating roles of self-regulation and psychological meaningfulness in the relationship between contentiousness and life satisfaction. We tested our propositions in a sample of 338 participants who were registered users of an online customer survey platform in Nigeria. The results of the study show that contentiousness was negatively related to life satisfaction, and this relationship is moderated by self-regulation. Psychological meaningfulness (presence and search) moderated the relationship between contentiousness and life satisfaction. These findings were discussed in relation to life satisfaction in developing countries where resources are grossly inadequate.
