Mindful parenting, a concept that has been coined and examined recently, refers to a parent’s ability to bring complete attention to their children in the present moment. The aims of this study are to examine the relationship between self-compassion and mindful parenting and the role of gratitude as a mediating variable in a cross-sectional study. Participants include 522 Vietnamese mothers (M age = 35.17; SD = 5.56) randomly selected through an online investigation. A 26-item Self-Compassion Scale was used to measure self-compassion, gratitude was measured by the Gratitude Questionnaire Six-Item Form, and mindful parenting was measured by the Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale. The results support two main findings: (a) self-compassion has a direct influence on mindful parenting (effect = 2.48, p < .001, 95% CI [1.75, 3.22]), and (b) the mediating role of gratitude in this model was significant (effect = 0.37, 95% CI [0.10, 0.70]). The study’s results also show that increasing self-compassion and gratitude can help to improve mindful parenting.

自我同情对正念育儿的影响：感恩的中介模型

正念养育是最近创造和研究的一个概念，是指父母在当下时刻全神贯注于孩子的能力。本研究的目的是在横断面研究中检验自我同情和正念养育之间的关系以及感恩作为中介变量的作用。参与者包括通过在线调查随机选择的 522 名越南母亲（M 年龄 = 35.17；SD = 5.56）。自我慈悲量表采用26项自怜量表，感恩量表采用六项式感恩问卷，正念教养采用育儿中的人际正念量表进行测量。结果支持两个主要发现：（a）自我同情对正念育儿有直接影响（效果 = 2.48，p < .001，95% CI [1.75, 3.22]），(b) 感恩在这个模型中的中介作用是显着的（效应 = 0.37, 95% CI [0.10, 0.70]）。该研究的结果还表明，增加自我同情和感恩可以帮助改善正念养育。
