Title: | The contribution of the components of self-compassion and self-judgment in depressive symptomatology and psychological health in patients with chronic physical disease | Authors: | Matos-Pina, Inês Oliveira, Sara Ferreira, Cláudia |
Keywords: | Chronic disease; Depressive sintomatology; Psychological health; Self-compassion; Self-judgment | Issue Date: | 24-Nov-2022 | Publisher: | Taylor and Francis Group | Serial title, monograph or event: | Psychology, Health & Medicine | Volume: | 28 | Issue: | 6 | Abstract: | The current study aimed at examining the potential role of selfcompassion and self-judgment components on depressive symptomatology and psychological health in people with a diagnosis of chronic physical disease. The sample included 223 participants with a diagnosis of chronic physical disease, aged between 18 and 45 years, who completed an online survey. The tested model showed an excellent fit to the empirical data and path analysis results indicated that mindfulness, self-judgment, and isolation have a significant impact on depressive symptomatology (explaining 40% of its variance) and also on psychological health (explaining 45% of its variance). This study shed some light on the role of both self-compassion and self-judgment components, suggesting the importance of the promotion of mindfulness skills and the reduction of self-judgment and feelings of isolation in people with chronic physical disease. These findings seem to support the development of more effective interventions for the promotion of psychological health and reduction of depressive symptoms in people diagnosed with a chronic physical disease. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/115427 | Rights: | embargoedAccess |
