Background: Taking Care of people with physical, mental and multiple disabilities can affect the physical and mental health of caregivers. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the effective variables on the psychological health of these individuals. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to predict psychological well-being based on self-compassion and self- esteem in caregivers of people with physical, mental, and multiple disabilities in the Welfare Organization of Isfahan province.
Methods: This was a descriptive-analytical study. A census sampling method was used to select54 subjects in the research community to participate in the study. The instruments for collecting data were Self-Compassion Inventory, Reef Psychological Well-Being Inventory, and Cooper Smith Self-Esteem Inventory. Pearson analysis and Multiple Regression analysis were used to analyze the data using SPSS20 software.
Results: Data analysis showed that the components of self-kindness, mindfulness, social and academic self-esteem can significantly predict the psychological well-being of the disabled's caregivers (P-value < 0.01).
Conclusion: According to the findings of this study, it is imperative that the respected authorities of the Welfare Organization provide the necessary preparations and instructions. Therefore, disabled's caregivers can experience higher levels of psychological well-being by familiarizing themselves through components of self-compassion and self-esteem.
