| 概要 | Previous studies found that both self-compassion and self-esteem buffer people against a negative experience when it happens. However, little is known about how people high in these traits perceive failure in general. The present study aimed to investigate beliefs about failure that self-compassionate people hold in contrast to people with high self-esteem. Japanese undergraduates (N = 246) completed measures of self-compassion, self-esteem, and four beliefs about failure. Structure equation modeling examined the relations of self-compassion and self-esteem to these beliefs. Both self-compassion and self-esteem negatively predicted negative valence of failure. Self-compassion positively predicted learning orientation from it and negatively predicted desire to avoid it, whereas self-esteem was not a significant predictor. Self-compassion positively predicted perceived inevitability of failure, whereas self-esteem negatively predicted it. These results indicate that, in contrast to people with high self-esteem, self-compassionate people perceive failure as a chance for growth, understand the inevitability of its occurrence, and they do not believe that they must avoid it. |
