Self-Compassion, Loneliness, and Psychological Well-Being in People Living With HIV

Bogusch, Leah M., Fekete, Erin M., Skinta, Matthew D., Williams, Stacey L., Taylor, Nicole M., McErlean, Amanda R. 01 August 2014 (has links) (PDF)
We hypothesized that higher levels of self-compassion among people living with HIV (PLWH) would be related to lower levels of loneliness, which in turn would be associated with better psychological well-being (lower levels of depression and negative affect and higher positive affect). 106 PLWH completed an online survey that measured demographic variables, self-compassion, loneliness, and psychological well-being. Mediation analyses revealed that loneliness mediated the relationship between self-compassion and depression and negative affect, but not positive affect. These findings indicate that encouraging self-compassion may have a positive effect on psychological well-being among people living with HIV by reducing loneliness.
