简要总结
This is an academic research study aiming to explore the relationships between equanimity, mindfulness, self-compassion, and mental health outcomes, and to examine the reliability and validity of the new measures in Hong Kong.
详细描述
The current research aims to validate two new measures, the Equanimity Scale (ES-16) and the Sussex-Oxford Compassion for the Self Scale (SOCS-S) in Hong Kong. Standard procedures of forward-backward translation of the ES-16 and SOCS-S were employed. Adults aged 18 or above will be recruited in the community to fill out a set of questionnaires two times on equanimity, mindfulness, self-compassion, and mental health outcomes (i.e., depression, anxiety, stress, wellbeing). Relationships between these variables will be explored. To assess test-retest reliability, participants will be invited to fill out the same set of questionnaires on a total of two time points: baseline and two-week post-baseline.
