Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This study evaluates the psychometric properties of the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) in a community sample of 1,643 individuals. Confirmatory factor analysis failed to replicate the scale's proposed six-factor structure, while exploratory factor analysis supported a two-factor model based on positively and negatively formulated items. The findings suggest that the SCS total score is not a valid overall indicator of self-compassion and highlight the importance of distinguishing between self-compassion and self-criticism.
