Abstract: In order to investigate the impact of basic needs satisfaction on game satisfaction as well as the mediation of flow experience and positive emotion, a sample of 286 online-game player completed Questionnaire of Basic Needs Satisfaction, Flow Experience Questionnaire, Positive Affect Scale and Satisfaction With Game Scale. Data were analyzed with SPSS 17.0. We used bias-corrected percentile Bootstrap method to analyze the chain mediating roles of online flow experience and positive emotion in relationship between basic needs satisfaction and game satisfaction. The results indicated: 1)the four factors of basic needs satisfaction, flow experience, positive emotion and game satisfaction are all pairwise correlated; basic needs satisfaction had an direct effect on game satisfaction and could significantly predict flow experience and positive emotion; flow experience could significantly predict positive emotion; and both flow experience and positive emotion could significantly predict game satisfaction. 2)basic needs satisfaction affected game satisfaction through three indirect paths: the mediating role of flow experience, the mediating role of positive emotion, and the chain mediating role of both online flow experience and positive emotion. Conclusion: Basic needs satisfaction not only had an direct effect on game satisfaction but also affected game satisfaction through the serial mediating role of flow experience and positive emotion.

Key words: online game, basic needs satisfaction, flow experience, positive emotion, game satisfaction
