| dc.description.abstract |
This research examines the role of self-compassion in promoting psychological health among Australian psychologists and psychology trainees. The first study found that self-compassion predicted depression and stress in a sample of 198 trainee and practising psychologists, and that emotion regulation difficulties mediated these relationships. In the second study, a novel online self-compassion training program was developed, and its feasibility and effectiveness for improving psychological wellbeing and reducing psychological distress among trainee psychologists was evaluated. | |
