Abstract

The purpose of the current study was to develop a method of measuring self-compassionate behaviors (SCBs) in daily life based on the framework of functional analysis in clinical behavior analysis. The current study used the Ecological Momentary Assessment, which is a method of recording events and behaviors in daily life. Multi-level simple regression analysis revealed that most of the items classified as SCBs significantly predicted an increase in state selfcompassion 60 minutes after SCBs. In addition, most of the items classified as SCBs significantly predicted an increase in acceptance. However, most of the items classified as SCBs did not predict an increase in well-being. The method of measuring SCBs in daily life developed in this study may present a new paradigm for the study of self-compassion. Moreover, this method should be a clinically useful method of measuring SCBs as it enables the assessment of changes in SCBs in daily life following an intervention. Further research is needed to examine the relationship between SCBs and well-being in detail.
