Psychological Well-Being
Tidsramme: Within 24 hours before the intervention, within 24 hours after the intervention, and 6-8 weeks after the intervention
|
Participants' psychological well-being will be assessed using the Psychological Well-Being Scale developed by Diener et al. (2010) to measure socio-psychological well-being.
The scale consists of 8 items rated on a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1 ("Strongly disagree") to 7 ("Strongly agree").
Total scores range from 8 to 56, with higher scores indicating greater psychological well-being and stronger psychological resources.
The Turkish version of the scale demonstrated good internal consistency, with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.80 (Telef, 2013).

It includes six subscales: self-kindness, self-judgment, common humanity, isolation, mindfulness, and over-identification.
Total scores range from 24 to 120, with higher scores indicating greater self-compassion.
