本文定义并研究了自我慈悲的构造。自我慈悲包含三个主要组成部分:(a) 善待自己——在痛苦或失败的情况下对自己友善和理解,而不是严厉地自我批评;(b) 共同的人性——将自己的经历视为更大的人类经历的一部分,而不是将其视为分离和孤立;(c) 正念——以平衡的意识保持痛苦的想法和感受,而不是过度认同它们。自我同情是一种情感上积极的自我态度,可以防止自我判断、孤立和沉思(例如抑郁)带​​来的负面后果。由于其非评价性和相互关联的性质,它还应该抵制与试图维持自尊有关的自恋、自我中心和向下的社会比较的倾向。研究了自我同情与其他心理结构的关系,探讨了其与心理功能的联系,并讨论了自我同情的潜在群体差异。
This article defines and examines the construct of self-compassion. Self-compassion entails three main components: (a) self-kindness-being kind and understanding toward oneself in instances of pain or failure rather than being harshly self-critical, (b) common humanity-perceiving one's experiences as part of the larger human experience rather than seeing them as separating and isolating, and (c) mindfulness-holding painful thoughts and feelings in balanced awareness rather than over-identifying with them. Self-compassion is an emotionally positive self-attitude that should protect against the negative consequences of self-judgment, isolation, and rumination (such as depression). Because of its non-evaluative and interconnected nature, it should also counter the tendencies towards narcissism, self-centeredness, and downward social comparison that have been associated with attempts to maintain self-esteem. The relation of self-compassion to other psychological constructs is examined, its links to psychological functioning are explored, and potential group differences in self-compassion are discussed.
