Abstract

This study was aimed at examining the relationship between parental attachment and social anxiety, and the mediating effects of self-compassion. 418 university students in Gyeonggi province completed the Parental Bond Instrument, the Self-Compassion Scale, and the Social Avoidance-Distress Scale. Our analysis has revealed that, first of all, while there was no gender difference in parental attachment, self-compassion was higher in men and social anxiety was higher in women. Secondly, social anxiety demonstrated a significant negative correlation with parental attachment and self-compassion, while there was a significant positive correlation between parental attachment and self-compassion. Third, self-compassion partially mediated the relationship between parental attachment and social anxiety. Forth, among the self-compassion sub-dimensions, only self-kindness, self-criticism, common humanity and isolation had mediating effects. Fifth, the mediating effect of self-compassion was significant only for women. These results suggest that it is necessary to focus on self-compassion for those who are suffering from social anxiety. The implications and limitations are also discussed.
