Abstract:

Objective: The prevalence of high-risk behaviors is one of the serious health threats that has been considered in recent years. The aim of this study was to investigate the mediation of self-compassion dimensions on attachment styles and high-risk behaviors of students. Method: The present study was a descriptive-correlational study with hierarchical regression method by Baron and Kenny method. The statistical population included all Islamic Azad and Payame Noor students of Karaj branch, which was estimated at about 15,000 people. Using Morgan table, 374 single students were selected by convenience sampling method. The participants answered the questionnaires of Hazen and Shaver attachment style, high-risk behavior and compassion. The results were analyzed using SPSS 21 statistical software. Results: The results showed that among the three dimensions of attachment style, ambivalent style predicts high-risk behaviors (F = 77.4, P <0.03). The results of attachment and compassion style regression showed that only the ambivalent attachment component has the power to predict compassion (p <0.00 F = 172, 11). The results of hierarchical regression analysis showed that only the isolation dimension of the dimensions of self-compassion has a mediating role in the relationship between ambivalent attachment style and high-risk behaviors. The Sobel test was used to evaluate the significance of the mediating effect, which showed the significance of this test. Conclusion: Due to the importance of ambivalent attachment style in predicting high-risk behaviors and the mediating role of isolation dimension in relation to ambivalent attachment style and high-risk behaviors of students, it is necessary to pay more attention to these two variables in intervention and preventive programs, So that students can act more appropriately in their fields of study. Therefore, it is possible to improve educational processes and strategies by basing them on the underlying components.
