Sociodemographic and psychosocial correlates of self-compassion in adolescents with physical health conditions.
Article in Child and adolescent psychiatry and mental health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAdolescents with physical health conditions (PHCs) face the dual demands of both normative developmental and disease-related burdens. Self-compassion (SC) represents a potentially important resource, yet little is known about its correlates. This study investigated sociodemographic, health-related, and interpersonal predictors of compassionate self-responding (CS) and uncompassionate self-responding (UCS) among adolescents with PHCs.
methodsIn total, 498 adolescents (ages 12–21) with type 1 diabetes, cystic fibrosis, and juvenile idiopathic arthritis completed measures of SC, depression, anxiety, disease severity and duration, parental support, peer group integration, and seeking social support. Hierarchical multiple regressions were conducted separately for CS and UCS. Predictors were entered as follows: (1) sociodemographic variables, (2) health-related factors, and (3) social resources.
resultsCS was primarily explained by social resources, namely parental support, peer integration, and seeking social support. In contrast, UCS was explained by depression, anxiety, and disease severity, alongside lower parental and peer support. The final hierarchical regression models accounted for 27.8% of the variance in CS and 42.9% in UCS.
conclusionsFindings reveal two distinct pathways that should be considered in future practice: Results for UCS emphasize the need for early identification and targeted intervention, whereas strengthening supportive interpersonal contexts seems crucial with respect to CS.
