“…Twelve articles (9.23%) included self-compassion interventions. Eight studies (Eriksson, Germundsjö, Åström & Rönnlund, 2018; Kelman, Evare, Barrera, Muñoz, & Gilbert, 2018; Krieger et al, 2019; Shapira & Mongrain, 2010; Sherman et al, 2018; Stern & Engeln, 2018; Stevenson, Mattiske, & Nixon, 2019; Ziemer, Lamphere, Raque-Bogdan, & Schmidt, 2018) were randomized control trials with baseline data, whereas four studies (Finlay-Jones, Kane, & Rees, 2017; Krieger, Martig, van den Brink, & Berger, 2016; Mak et al, 2018; Mitchell, Whittingham, Steindl, & Kirby, 2018) had pretest/posttest designs with no control group. Longest length of follow-up ranged from immediately postintervention only (Kelman et al, 2018; Stern & Engeln, 2018) to six months (Shapira & Mongrain, 2010).…”
