The current study explored the mediating role of work interference on family guilt (WIFG) and family interference on work guilt (FIWG) in association with parents' self-compassion and mindful parenting during the COVID-19 pandemic, while controlling for the effects of educational level and marital status.
In May 2020, a sample of 398 mothers (26-50 years) participated in the study and completed an online survey that included a sociodemographic form and measures of self-compassion, work-family guilt, and mindful parenting. A parallel multiple mediation model was tested to explore the indirect effect of parents' self-compassion on mindful parenting through WIFG and FIWG. Independent samples -tests were performed to compare study variables by mothers' working conditions during the pandemic.
The mediation analysis indicated that parents' higher levels of self-compassion were indirectly associated with higher levels of mindful parenting through lower levels of WIFG/FIWG. Comparison analyses indicated that mothers who were working in their workplace during the pandemic reported higher levels of WIFG than those working from home; conversely, mothers who were working from home reported higher levels of FIWG than those working in their workplace.
These data highlight the importance of research in this field and support the development of intervention community programs for promoting mindful parenting, by developing more adaptive emotional regulation strategies such as self-compassion, which specifically target parents who experience higher levels of guilt associated with work and family conflict.

本研究探讨了在2019年冠状病毒病疫情期间，工作对家庭的内疚感（WIFG）和家庭对工作的内疚感（FIWG）在父母自我同情和正念养育中的中介作用，同时控制教育水平和婚姻状况的影响。
2020年5月，398名年龄在26至50岁之间的母亲参与了本研究，并完成了一项在线调查，该调查包括一份社会人口学表格以及自我同情、工作-家庭内疚感和正念养育的测量。测试了一个平行多重中介模型，以探讨父母自我同情通过WIFG和FIWG对正念养育的间接影响。进行独立样本t检验，以比较疫情期间母亲工作状况下的研究变量。
中介分析表明，父母较高水平的自我同情通过较低水平的WIFG/FIWG与较高水平的正念养育间接相关。比较分析表明，疫情期间在工作场所工作的母亲报告的WIFG水平高于在家工作的母亲；相反，在家工作的母亲报告的FIWG水平高于在工作场所工作的母亲。
这些数据凸显了该领域研究的重要性，并支持通过开发更具适应性的情绪调节策略（如自我同情）来促进正念养育的干预社区项目的发展，这些策略专门针对那些因工作和家庭冲突而内疚感较高的父母。
本研究未预先注册。
