摘要

摘要抑郁症在性少数女性中普遍存在,内化异性恋是一个危险因素。虽然研究发现自我同情可以预防抑郁症状,但它的六个组成部分很少被单独研究。本研究旨在探讨自我同情在女同性恋和双性恋女性中的保护功能及其组成部分,通过一个有调节的中介模型来评估自我同情是否通过内化异性恋而间接与抑郁症状相关,以及这种作用是否以性取向为条件。一个由498名双性恋和416名女同性恋组成的国际样本,年龄在18到75岁之间,完成了一项由自我同情量表、流行病学研究中心抑郁量表和女同性恋内化同性恋恐惧症量表组成的在线调查。结果发现,与女同性恋女性相比,双性恋女性的自我同情更少,内化的异性恋倾向更多,抑郁症状也更严重。虽然自我同情与较低程度的抑郁症状直接相关,并通过较低程度的内化异性恋间接相关,但其影响并不取决于性取向。研究结果表明,尽管在少数族裔压力和抑郁症状方面存在差异,但自我同情对女同性恋和双性恋女性具有类似的保护功能。在治疗中增加双性恋和女同性恋女性的自我同情有可能为抑郁症状的治疗提供一个有效的心理干预点。

The Relationship between Self-Compassion, Internalized Heterosexism, and Depressive Symptoms among Bisexual and Lesbian Women
Abstract Depression is prevalent among sexual minority women, with internalized heterosexism a risk factor. Whilst research has found self-compassion to provide protection against depressive symptoms, its six components are rarely examined individually. The current study aimed to investigate the protective function of self-compassion and its components among lesbian and bisexual women by testing a moderated-mediation model to assess whether self-compassion was indirectly related to depressive symptoms via internalized heterosexism and whether this effect was conditional upon sexual orientation. An international sample of 498 bisexual and 416 lesbian women aged 18 to 75 years completed an online survey consisting of the Self-Compassion Scale, Center for Epidemiological Studies – Depression Scale, and Lesbian Internalized Homophobia Scale – Short Form. Results found that bisexual women were less self-compassionate, held more internalized heterosexism, and had a higher severity of depressive symptoms compared to lesbian women. While self-compassion was directly related to lower levels of depressive symptoms and indirectly related via lower levels of internalized heterosexism, the effects were not conditional on sexual orientation. Findings suggest that despite differences in minority stress and depressive symptoms, self-compassion serves a similar protective function for lesbian and bisexual women. Increasing bisexual and lesbian women’s self-compassion in therapy has the potential to provide an effective point of psychological intervention in the treatment of depressive symptoms.
