Abstract :

This research sought to examine differences in levels of self-compassion and resilience between young adults who regularly exercise within organizational environments and those who do not. Non-probability convenience sampling was used to select 206 participants aged between 18 and 35 years, consisting of both male and female subjects. Validated psychological tools were employed to assess both self-compassion and resilience. The findings indicated a significant group difference in resilience scores, showing that organized exercise has the potential to add positively to the ability of individuals to cope with stress and adversity. There was no significant difference between the groups for self-compassion. These findings indicate that although institutional exercise could be associated with higher resilience, self-compassion could be related to something else. The research identifies the possible psychological advantage of organized physical exercise and calls for further examination of the determinants of self-compassion in young adults.
