The research of the relationship between academic supervision styles and postgraduate students’ motivation, perseverance, well-being and burnout is presented. The study involved 142 PhD students (M=28.8, SD=5.2, 54% female). The theoretical basis of the work was self-determination theory, which allows us to understand the contribution of styles that support or frustrate basic psychological needs to the motivation and intrinsic outcomes of postgraduate students' research activities. The study used the Universal Perceived Locus of Causality (UPLOC), Academic Supervision Styles (QA2S), burnout scales, and well-being (The PERMA Profiler) questionnaire. The results showed that the factors of autonomous motivation are autonomous and structuring academic supervision styles, whereas the factors of external motivation and amotivation are controlling and chaotic academic supervision styles. The quality of motivation mediates the effect of academic supervision styles on PhD students’ perseverance and burnout. Autonomous and structuring styles are positively and chaotic and controlling styles negatively related to total and selected aspects of well-being. Autonomous and structuring styles are the most favourable for PhD students. Мastering them and getting rid of unfavourable styles (controlling and chaotic) can be targets of work when organising the professional development of academic supervisors.
