Cultivation of compassion is a useful way to treat mental problems, but some individuals show resistance. Fears of compassion can be an obstacle for clinicians when providing psychotherapy, and for clients when engaging in interpersonal relationships. Despite its importance, a Japanese version of fears of compassion scales (for others, from others, and for self) has not yet been developed. This study developed a Japanese version of the Fears of Compassion Scales and tested its reliability and validity.
This study used a cross-sectional design, and a self-report procedure for collecting data.
A total of 485 students (121 males and 364 females) answered self-report questionnaires, including the draft Fears of Compassion Scales-Japanese version.
There were distinctive factor structures for fear of compassion from others, and for self. The fear of compassion from others scale consisted of concern about compassion from others and avoidance of compassion from others. All scales had good internal consistency, test-retest reliability, face validity, and construct validity. Discrimination and difficulty were also calculated.
These results indicate that the Fears of Compassion Scales-Japanese version is a well-constructed and useful measure to assess fears of compassion and the existence of cultural differences in fears of compassion.
培养同情心是治疗心理问题的一种有效方法，但有些人表现出抵触情绪。对同情心的恐惧可能会成为临床医生提供心理治疗时的障碍，以及来访者在人际交往中的障碍。尽管其很重要，但同情心恐惧量表的日语版本（针对他人、来自他人以及针对自身）尚未开发出来。本研究开发了同情心恐惧量表的日语版本，并测试了其信效度。
本研究采用横断面设计，并通过自我报告程序收集数据。
共有485名学生（121名男性和364名女性）回答了自我报告问卷，包括同情心恐惧量表日语版初稿。
对来自他人的同情心恐惧以及对自身的同情心恐惧存在独特的因子结构。来自他人的同情心恐惧量表由对来自他人同情心的担忧和对来自他人同情心的回避组成。所有量表都具有良好的内部一致性、重测信度、表面效度和结构效度。还计算了区分度和难度。
这些结果表明，同情心恐惧量表日语版是一个构建良好且有用的工具，可用于评估同情心恐惧以及同情心恐惧中文化差异的存在。
