Overview

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

This paper examines the relationship between self-compassion and well-being indicators, such as positive affect and ego integrity, in a sample of 185 adults aged 65 and older. The study also evaluates the factor structure of the Self-Compassion Scale within this demographic, finding it differs from structures observed in younger populations. The resource is relevant for researchers or clinicians interested in psychological aging and measurement validity.
