Scientific Methodology
The Self-Compassion Scale was developed based on Buddhist psychology and modern emotional regulation research. It has undergone rigorous validation and shown high reliability in studies worldwide. The test measures the balance between positive (self-kindness, common humanity, mindfulness) and negative (self-judgment, isolation, over-identification) components.
The Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) is a validated psychometric instrument measuring 6 components of self-attitude. Unlike narcissism or selfishness, self-compassion is a healthy form of self-relation associated with better psychological health and relationship quality.
