Previous research has examined the relationships among mindfulness facets (i.e., observing, describing, acting with awareness, non-judging of inner experience, and non-reactivity to inner experience), self-compassion, and aggression in men. The research examining these relationships in women has been limited. Thus, the present study aims to examine the relationships among mindfulness facets, self-compassion, and aggression in a sample of young adult women. Participants (N = 125) aged 18 to 25 (M = 21.16, SD = 1.72) completed self-report measures of mindfulness facets, self-compassion, and aggression. Regression analysis indicated significant negative correlations between aggression and describing (p = .003), acting with awareness (p < .001), non-judging (p < .001), non-reactivity (p = .001), and self-compassion (p < .001). There was not a statistically significant negative correlation between aggression and observing (p = .373). Furthermore, self-compassion explained variance in aggression above and beyond individuals’ mindfulness scores (p = .008). Results indicate that mindfulness facets and self-compassion may be valuable protective factors for aggression in young adult women. Future research on coping mechanisms for aggression should focus primarily on the facets of describing, acting with awareness, non-judging, and non-reactivity. Research should further explore the possible role of self-compassion in reducing aggression in young adult women.

先前的研究已经检验了正念方面（即，观察、描述、有意识地行动、不评判内在体验以及对内在体验无反应）、自我同情和男性攻击性之间的关系。检查女性这些关系的研究是有限的。因此，本研究旨在检验年轻成年女性样本中正念方面、自我同情和攻击性之间的关系。 年龄在 18 至 25 岁（M  = 21.16，SD = 1.72）的参与者（N = 125  ）完成了正念方面、自我同情和攻击性的自我报告测量。回归分析表明攻击和描述之间存在显着的负相关（p  = .003），有意识地行动（p  < .001)、不评判 ( p  < .001)、不反应 ( p  = .001) 和自我同情 ( p  < .001)。攻击性和观察之间没有统计学上显着的负相关性 ( p  = .373)。此外，自我慈悲解释了超出个人正念分数的攻击性差异（p =.008）。结果表明，正念方面和自我同情可能是年轻成年女性攻击性的宝贵保护因素。未来对攻击应对机制的研究应主要集中在描述、有意识地行动、非判断和非反应性方面。研究应进一步探索自我同情在减少年轻成年女性攻击性方面的可能作用。
