Abstract
Several studies have shown that losing a loved one can disrupt psychological well-being. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-compassion and psychological well-being in emerging adults who have lost their father due to death. The hypothesis proposed in this research is that there is a positive relationship between self-compassion and psychological well-being in emerging adults who have lost their father figure due to death. This research uses a quantitative approach with a correlational research design. The subjects of this research were 297 people. Data was collected using the Self-Compassion Scale—Short Form (SCS-SF) and the Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWBS). Data analysis in this study used Jamovi software version 2.2.5. The results of the analysis show that there is a significant positive relationship between self-compassion and psychological well-being in emerging adults who have lost their father figure due to death (r = 0.665; p < 0.001).
