Contrary to conventional wisdom and extant empirical work, forgiving the self may have deleterious consequences, especially if self-forgiveness is granted for chronic unhealthy behaviours such as smoking. Among 181 smokers, it was predicted and found that increased self-forgiveness for smoking was associated with a decreased likelihood of advancing through the stages of behavioural change towards action. Moreover, forgiving the self, mediated the relationship between movements from the pre-contemplation to contemplation stage of change and perceived smoking cons as well as experiential processes. An expanded understanding of the benefits and costs of self-forgiveness is discussed.
与传统智慧和现有实证研究相反，自我宽恕可能会产生有害的后果，尤其是如果自我宽恕是针对吸烟等慢性不健康行为。在 181 名吸烟者中，预测并发现，对吸烟的自我宽恕增加与朝着行动改变行为阶段前进的可能性降低有关。此外，自我宽恕中介了从改变的前沉思阶段到沉思阶段以及感知到的吸烟危害的运动和体验过程之间的关系。讨论了对自我宽恕的好处和成本的更广泛理解。
