Our goal was to investigate the efficacy of a Mindfulness-Based Intervention (MBI) in the form of a short-term, online intervention using exercises from Mindfulness-Based Stress-Reduction program on self-compassion, self-reassurance and self-criticism in a non-clinical population. We conducted pre-, post- and two-month follow-up measures of self-compassion, self-reassurance and self-criticism. A total of 146 participants, recruited through convenience sampling, were randomly allocated to the intervention with daily exercises for consecutive 15 days and to a control condition with no treatment. The intervention group reported a significant reduction in self-criticism and self-uncompassionate responding with effects present at two-month follow-up. There was a short-term effect of the training on self-compassion with no effect present at the two-month follow-up and no significant effect on self-reassurance. A limitation of the study is that participants’ previous experience with meditation was not assessed, and thus the findings may be a result of previous meditation practice and not the intervention itself. Despite this limitation, the findings show that an online short-term MBI may be helpful in reducing self-criticism in general population, but a larger study taking into account the limitations needs to be conducted to replicate this effect before recommendations for clinical practice can be made.

This study explores the relationship between self-criticism, self-reassurance, and the face scanning patterns participants use to recognize photos of happiness. Forty-two participants were being recorded by eye-trackers while watching photos of happy and neutral facial expressions. Participants also completed the Forms of Self-Criticising/Attacking and Self-Reassuring Scale. The Hated Self score was negatively related to the total fixation duration on the eyes and around the eyes. The Inadequate Self score tended to correlate positively with the total fixation duration time on all examined areas of the face and Reassured Self score tended to correlate positively with the total fixation duration time on the area around the eyes, although none of these correlations appeared to be statistically significant. Being able to distinguish between the more pathological Hated Self form of self-criticism and the less pathological Inadequate Self could improve psychological assessment and intervention evaluations.
