While previous studies have examined the independent effect of self-compassion or compassion for others on well-being, the present study examined how self-compassion may interact with compassion for others in predicting well-being. Two studies were conducted. In Study 1, 457 participants completed assessments at baseline and 229 participants were retained and completed the assessment at 4-month follow-up. Results showed that baseline self-compassion predicted higher levels of subsequent well-being when baseline compassion for others was moderate or high. Study 2 recruited 147 participants and they were assigned to either the self-compassion condition or the control condition. Results showed that participants who practiced self-compassion for 1 week in the self-compassion condition showed more reduction in negative affect than the control condition when baseline compassion for others was high. Findings showed that the effects of compassion for the self on one's well-being may be contingent on one's compassion for others.
虽然先前的研究已经考察了自我同情或对他人的同情对幸福感的独立影响，但本研究考察了在预测幸福感时自我同情如何与对他人的同情相互作用。我们进行了两项研究。在研究1中，457名参与者在基线时完成了评估，229名参与者被保留并在4个月的随访时完成了评估。结果显示，当基线时对他人的同情处于中等或较高水平时，基线自我同情预测了随后更高水平的幸福感。研究2招募了147名参与者，他们被分配到自我同情组或对照组。结果显示，当基线时对他人的同情较高时，在自我同情组中进行了1周自我同情练习的参与者比对照组在负面影响方面减少得更多。研究结果表明，自我同情对一个人幸福感的影响可能取决于其对他人的同情。
