Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to examine the emotion regulation skills of university students in terms of attachment styles and self-compassion. The participants of the study were determined using the appropriate sampling method. The participants consisted of a total of 414 university students, 230 (55.6%) of whom were female and 184 (44.4%) of whom were male. In order to collect the data, “Personal Information Form”, “Emotion Regulation Scale (DBL)”, “Experiences in Close Relationships II (CRI II)” and “Self-Compassion Scale” were used. SPSS 26.0 package program was used to analyze the data. In this analysis, Pearson product-moment correlation, multiple linear regression analysis and independent groups t-test methods were used. The findings of the study showed that emotion regulation skills have a positive and significant relationship with attachment styles and self-compassion. As a result of the regression analysis, it was concluded that the avoidant attachment sub-dimension of attachment styles and the consciousness sub-dimension of self-compassion significantly predicted the re-evaluation sub-dimension of emotion regulation skills. It was concluded that the consciousness and overidentification sub-dimensions of attachment styles and self-compassion significantly predicted the concealment sub-dimension of emotion regulation skills. It was determined that emotion regulation skills did not show a significant difference according to gender.
