Self ‐compassion and related factors in severe mental illness: A scoping review
AbstractPurposeTo clarify what is known and identify research gaps on the role of self-compassion (SC) and potential interventions for individuals with severe mental illness (SMI).Design and MethodsWe analyzed 24 studies of SC in schizophrenia spectrum disorder, bipolar disorder (BD), and major depressive disorder (MDD).FindingsMindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) was the most common intervention. Predicting depression by SC was common in MDD and BD; however, relationships between demographics/clinical variables and SC in BD and schizophrenia spectrum disorder remain unclear.Practice ImplicationsMBCT increases SC in SMI. Data regarding predictors of SC are limited, especially in schizophrenia.
