Abstract
Researchers have used self-efficacy to investigate online learning, physical therapist, diabetes type 2, work engagement, teacher education, exercise behavior, chemotherapy treatment, Alzheimer disease, counseling, clinical reasoning, and online shopping (Bradley et al., 2017; Costello et al., 2017; Lalnuntluangi, et al., 2017; Lee, 2017; Lisbona et al., 2018; Malinauskas et al., 2018; Middelkamp et al., 2017; Papadopoulou et al. 2016; Salamizadeh, et al., 2017; Ümmet, 2017; Venskus & Craig, 2017; & Yahong et al., 2018). Instrumentation used were self-efficacy (Schwarzer & Jerusalem, 1995), compassion scale (Pommier, 2011), self-compassion scale (Neff, 2003). Pommier's (2011) scale measures compassion toward others. Subscale are: kindness, judgment, common humanity, isolation, mindfulness, and disengagement. Neff's (2003) scale measures compassion toward self. Subscale are: selfkindness, self-judgment, common humanity, isolation, mindfulness, and over-identified. Participants (N=69) in this educational intervention were BSN junior students. The self-efficacy scale was used to create two groups (e.g., high self-efficacy scores, moderate-low self-efficacy scores). Hypothesis 1: Kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness subscales from Pommier's compassion towards others questionnaire would have different mean scores for the two self-efficacy groups. Hypothesis 2: The common humanity, mindfulness, and over-identified subscales from Neff's compassion towards self questionnaire would have different mean scores for the two self-efficacy groups. Independent t-test analyses (SPSS #25) were significant for Pommier subscales (kindness, p=.007; common humanity, p=.001; mindfulness, p=.001) and for Neff's subscales (common humanity, p=.045; mindfulness, p=.001; over-identified, p=.019). Barring over-identified significant finding, BSN students with high scores on SE had high mean scores on the remaining five subscales.
