Self-compassion reduces posttraumatic stress symptom severity in hurricane survivors via perceived social support
Following hurricane exposure, self-compassionate people experience less PTSS over time because they perceive their social support resources to be more robust. Implementation of self-compassion education and training following a disaster could improve perceived social support networks that provide an additional protective factor against PTSS.

Feeling Like a Burden
We examined the negative outcomes, particularly social costs that result when a person harms their group by performing poorly, and whether self-compassion could buffer against these negative outcomes. In Studies 1 and 2, participants performed poorly and harmed their group or performed equal to their group. Harmful poor-performing participants felt more burdensome, experienced more negative affect, felt more ostracized, anticipated more exclusion…
Self-Compassionate Responses to an Imagined Sexual Assault
This research assesses the relationship between self-compassion and well-being following an imagined trauma (i.e., sexual assault) and shows positive outcomes from a self-compassion induction. After a pilot study ( N = 54) established the believability of a sexual assault scenario, the primary study randomly assigned female participants ( N = 141) to a self-compassion or control condition. Participants read educational prompts (self-compassion an…
Resisting self-compassion
Although self-compassion is associated with positive emotions, resilience, and well-being, some people resist recommendations to treat themselves with kindness and compassion. This study investigated how people’s personal values and evaluations of self-compassionate behaviors relate to their level of self-compassion. After completing measures of trait self-compassion and values, participants rated how they would view themselves after behaving in …
Presenting a Self-Compassionate Image After an Interpersonal Transgression
Two studies investigate the presentation of self-compassion following an interpersonal transgression. In study 1 (N = 228), participants imagined letting someone down. Self-compassionate participants were less likely to endorse self-critical statements and more likely to endorse self-compassionate statements. Study 2 (N = 208) investigated people's preference for self-compassionate versus self-critical statements after someone let them down. Less…
Personality and Persona
This article examines the role that personality variables and processes play in people's efforts to manage their public images. Although most research on self‐presentation has focused on situational influences, people differ greatly in the degree to which they care about others’ impressions of them, the types of impressions they try to convey, and their evaluations of their self‐presentational effectiveness. Personality constructs such as public …
Self-compassion and Well-being among Older Adults
Two studies assessed the role of self-compassion as a moderator of the relationship between physical health and subjective well-being in the elderly. In Study 1, 132 participants, ranging in age from 67-90 years, completed a questionnaire that assessed their perceptions of their physical health, self-compassion, and subjective well-being. Participants who were in good physical health had high subjective well-being regardless of their level of sel…
Managing social images in naturalistic versus laboratory settings
Over the past 50 years, research on self‐presentation has revealed a great deal about how people construct social images by managing the impressions that others form of them. However, inspection of the dominant research paradigms reveals that most researchers have not addressed central features of self‐presentation as they occur in everyday life. Using a framework that identifies four primary features of everyday self‐presentation, we compare and…
Self-presentational persona
Most research on self-presentation has examined how people convey images of themselves on only 1 or 2 dimensions at a time. In everyday interactions, however, people often manage their impressions on several image-relevant dimensions simultaneously. By examining people's self-presentations to several targets across multiple dimensions, these 2 studies offer new insights into the nature of self-presentation and provide a novel paradigm for studyin…
Self‐Compassion, Stress, and Coping
People who are high in self‐compassion treat themselves with kindness and concern when they experience negative events. The present article examines the construct of self‐compassion from the standpoint of research on coping in an effort to understand the ways in which people who are high in self‐compassion cope with stressful events. Self‐compassionate people tend to rely heavily on positive cognitive restructuring and less so on avoidance and es…
The Analogue-I and the Analogue-Me
The analogue-I and analogue-me refer to mental self-relevant images that take a first-person vs. third-person perspective, respectively. Mental self-analogues are essential for goal setting, planning, and rehearsal of behavioral strategies, but they often fuel emotional and interpersonal problems when people react to their analogue selves as if they were real. This article examines the beneficial and detrimental consequences of the analogue-I and…
Self-compassion and reactions to unpleasant self-relevant events
Five studies investigated the cognitive and emotional processes by which self-compassionate people deal with unpleasant life events. In the various studies, participants reported on negative events in their daily lives, responded to hypothetical scenarios, reacted to interpersonal feedback, rated their or others' videotaped performances in an awkward situation, and reflected on negative personal experiences. Results from Study 1 showed that self-…
