This study investigates the mediating roles of spiritual well-being and belief in fate in the relationship between patience and self-compassion among university students. The research was conducted with 670 students. Data were collected using the "Patience Scale", "Self-Compassion Scale," "Theistic Fate Perception Scale," and a "Personal Information Form." Analyses were performed using Process Macro Model 4 and Model 8. The findings indicate no significant relationship between self-compassion and spiritual well-being. However, an optimistic prediction was identified between spiritual well-being and patience. Furthermore, the study's findings have significant implications. It was found that spiritual well-being does not serve as a mediating role in the relationship between self-compassion and patience. Instead, belief in fate plays a regulatory role that strengthens the relationship between self-compassion and spiritual well-being. Among individuals with a high belief in fate, the prediction of spiritual well-being by self-compassion becomes more pronounced. Moreover, belief in fate regulates the indirect prediction of patience by self-compassion through spiritual well-being, opening up new avenues for research and practice. A number of limitations regarding this study are also noted.
本研究探讨了精神幸福感和命运信念在大学生耐心与自我同情关系中的中介作用。该研究对670名学生进行。数据收集使用了“耐心量表”“自我同情量表”“有神论命运感知量表”以及“个人信息表”。分析采用过程宏模型4和模型8进行。研究结果表明,自我同情与精神幸福感之间不存在显著关系。然而,在精神幸福感与耐心之间发现了一种乐观的预测关系。此外,该研究结果具有重要意义。研究发现,精神幸福感在自我同情与耐心的关系中不发挥中介作用。相反,命运信念起到了调节作用,加强了自我同情与精神幸福感之间的关系。在命运信念高的个体中,自我同情对精神幸福感的预测更为明显。此外,命运信念调节了自我同情通过精神幸福感对耐心的间接预测,为研究和实践开辟了新途径。本研究也存在一些局限性。
