Understanding self-compassion in adolescents: Validation study of the Self-Compassion Scale

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:	This questionnaire is a 26 items and six subscales: Self-Kindness; Self-Judgement; Common Humanity; Isolation; Mindfulness; Over-Identification. Respondents were instructed with the sentence "how I typically act towards myself in difficult times" and were asked to answer each item according to a 5-point scale (1 = Almost Never; 5 = Almost Always). Subscale scores are computed by calculating the mean of subscale item responses. To compute the total score of SCS, the Self-Kindness, Common Humanity, and Mindfulness are summed with reverse scores of the Self-Judgement, Isolation, and Over-identification subscales. Higher scores indicate greater self-compassion.
