Resilience, Self-Disclosure, Self-Esteem, Self-Compassion, College StudentAbstract
College students often face various academic, social, and emotional challenges that can affect their psychological well-being. Students living in a Ma’had environment face additional demands, including academic responsibilities, dormitory regulations, and social adjustment processes, which underscore the importance of self-compassion as a psychological protective factor. This study aimed to examine the relationships among resilience, self-disclosure, self-esteem, and self-compassion in college students. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional correlational survey design was employed. Participants consisted of 101 second-semester students enrolled in the Ma’had program, selected through random sampling. Data were collected using Likert-scale instruments measuring resilience, self-disclosure, self-esteem, and self-compassion, and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression in SPSS version 26. The results showed that resilience, self-disclosure, and self-esteem jointly and significantly predicted self-compassion (R = 0.550, p < 0.001), with a coefficient of determination (R² = 0.303) indicating that the predictors accounted for 30.3% of the variance in self-compassion. These findings suggest the need for counseling services that incorporate Reality Therapy, Cognitive Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy techniques, integrated with Islamic values such as self-reflection, gratitude, and patience.
