From Self to Others: Examining the Association Between Self-Compassion and Prosocial Behavior in Chinese Adolescents Using Latent Profile Analysis

Combined effect of compassionate and uncompassionate self-responding on Chinese college students’ mental health during the initial wave of the COVID-19 pandemic: a response surface analysis

“…Recent studies utilising latent profile analysis (LPA) have explored how self-compassion clusters. They found that CSR and USR can be both high or low in the same individuals (Li et al, 2023 ; Liu et al, 2023 ; Wei et al, 2023 ; Wu et al, 2021 ). Furthermore, these studies indicate that CSR and USR interact to influence psychological outcomes (see Figure 1 c).…”

“…Oppositely, some studies indicated the dominant role of CSR. For example, Liu et al ( 2023 ) noted that increased CSR and USR were associated with more prosocial behaviour, though to a lesser extent than the high-CSR-only group. In addition to the scenarios above, research demonstrated that CSR and USR could work together synergistically.…”

“…Notably, most studies suggest that components within CSR and USR tend to change concurrently and can generally be classified into two main types (e.g. Li et al, 2023 ; Liu et al, 2023 ; Wei et al, 2023 ; Wu et al, 2021 ). The first type demonstrates congruency between CSR and USR, where both dimensions exhibit similar levels (i.e.…”
