Partisipan keseluruhan berjumlah 180 partisipan yang berada pada rentang usia dewasa awal, yaitu 18-29 tahun, serta berdomisili dan berkewarganegaraan Indonesia. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa self-compassion memiliki peran yang signifikan terhadap BID (R2 = .239, F(1, 178) = 55.77, p = .000). Selain itu, penelitian ini juga menemukan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan skor self-compassion dan BID antara laki-laki dan perempuan.
