miedo a la compasión, coronavirus, COVID-19, regulación emocional, comportamiento prosocialResumen
Como una motivación prosocial, la compasión tiende a promover una mayor participación en las mentalidades de cuidado y sentido colectivo, capacidades que pueden estar afectadas por el miedo a la compasión. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo investigar el papel de los miedos a la compasión en el compromiso en seguir medidas de distanciamiento social en contra COVID-19. 284 adultos (edad media = 36,47) respondieron Escalas de Miedo a la Compasión, Escala de Dificultades de Regulación Emocional y un cuestionario sobre compromiso con protocolos contra COVID-19. Un modelo de path analysis explicó 32% de la variación en la adhesión a los protocolos de dos maneras: el miedo a ser compasivo con los demás disminuye el compromiso debido a motivaciones prosociales; mientras que los miedos a expresar compasión por uno mismo y por los demás predicen mayores dificultades en la regulación emocional, disminuyendo la adherencia por agotamiento emocional. Ofrecer el desarrollo de la compasión puede contribuir a afrontar de manera más saludable las dificultades emocionales planteadas por la pandemia y en la participación en acciones colectivas.
