The effect of revised process recording on self-focus and self-compassion: A randomized controlled pilot study.

DESIGN AND METHODS: Thirty-five university nursing students in Japan participated in this randomized controlled trial. The revised process recording referred to self-compassion. Both the control and intervention groups completed the self-compassion scale (SCS) pre- and post-intervention. A repeated two-way analysis of variance examined the interaction effect of time × group on the SCS subscales.
FINDINGS: A significant interaction effect was observed only for mindfulness; the score only increased in the intervention group. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: The revised process recording might facilitate self-compassion, making it appropriate for nursing education.
