Data were analyzed using SPSS software through Pearson correlation and simultaneous hierarchical regression.
Findings: According to the direct impact coefficient of β = 0.509, indirect impact coefficient of β = 0.046, direct critical value of t = 5.857, and indirect critical value of 0.051, the variable of self-compassion can explain the role of the mediating variable between the predictive variable of psychological capital and the criterion variable of self-care.
