Parental divorce is considered to have several negative impacts, one of which is self-harm. Several previous studies have shown that self-compassion can be a protective factor against negative experiences such as parental divorce and preventing self-harm. This study aims to examine the relationship between self-compassion and self-harm in early adulthood with divorced parents. This study is a quantitative correlational study with 91 participants aged 18-25 years, coming from divorced families and having committed self-harm. Self-compassion was measured using the Self Compassion Scale-Short Form (SCS-SF) and self-harm was measured using the Self Harm Behavior Questionnaire (SHBQ). The results of this study indicate that there is a significant negative relationship between self-compassion and self-harm in early adulthood with divorced parents, r = - 0.275, p < 0.01. The higher a person's self-compassion, the lower the self-injury behavior.
