“…With regard to mediation, the first specific relationship included was the association of perceived stress from life events, which was significant and positive with small effect size, and agrees with findings by Tholouli et al (2016). These researchers also informed low effects when verifying that students who reported having higher levels of perceived stress experienced a greater number of life events during the past year, while cross-sectional studies informed significant and positive correlations with moderate effects (Linden et al, 2018;Zou et al, 2018).…”

“…Second, the nonprobabilistic sampling technique, the disparity in the sample size between sex and the crosssectional design are characteristics of the study that expose it to bias. Third, other variables, such as social support, depressive symptomatology or emotional intelligence, were not considered; recent studies have found that these variables are highly relevant for the perceived stress and QoL of university students (Enns et al, 2018;Fasoro et al, 2019;Foster et al, 2018;García-León, et al, 2019;Praharso et al, 2017;Seo et al, 2018;Tholouli et al, 2016;Xuhua He et al, 2018;Zou et al, 2018).…”

“…Recently, interest has grown in knowing the mechanisms that explain the association between life events and Quality of Life (QoL), which is defined as the perception an individual has of his or her life based on a conception of the world, values, expectations, objectives, concerns, and standards (WHOQOL Group, 1993). Among these, perceived stress could have a mediating function, since it is considered a variable resulting from life events (Cohen et al, 1983), and is positively associated with life events of moderate to moderately strong effects among university students (Linden et al, 2018;Tholouli et al, 2016;Zou et al, 2018) and is negatively related to QoL with moderate to moderately strong effects and with slightly higher effect sizes in the psychological well-being domain (Civitci, 2015;Huéscar, & Moreno-Murcia, 2017;Opoku-Acheampong et al, 2017;Seo et al, 2018;Shi et al, 2015;Xuhua He et al, 2018).…”

The objectives of the study were: a) to estimate the direct effect of life events on the dimensions of quality of life (Physical Health, Psychological Health, Social Relations, and Environment), b) to estimate the indirect effect of perceived stress on the relationship between events vital and the dimensions of quality of life, c) the moderation of resilience and sex on both effects in university students. 327 university students participated, 56,9% women, aged between 18 and 24 years. Perceived stress was found to mediate the relationship between life events and the quality-of-life dimensions. It was also found that sex and resilience did not moderate the direct and indirect effect in any of the dimensions of quality of life. This study provides proof of the mechanisms of perceived stress, resilience, and sex on the relationship between life events and the quality of life of university students.

“…In college students, SC was found to relate with higher resilience (7) , academic engagement, less exhaustion (2) and burnout (11) . Moreover, it seems to mediate the association between negative life events and stress (10) , depressive symptoms and suicidal behaviors (9) . It benefits students with limited general resourcefulness skills, moderating its relationship with academic self-regulation (3) .…”

ÖzetBu araştırma üniversite öğrencilerinin merhamet düzeylerinin öznel iyi oluş üzerindeki yordayıcı etkisini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada ayrıca öğrencilerin algılanan gelir düzeyi ile yerleşim yerinin merhamet ve öznel iyi oluş puanları üzerindeki etkisi ele alınmıştır. Araştırma grubunu 18-32 yaşları arasındaki 198'i kız (% 49.3), 204'ü erkek (% 50.7), toplam 402 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada Merhamet Ölçeği, Öznel İyi Oluş Ölçeği ve Kişisel Bilgi Formu kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre; merhamet ile öznel iyi oluş puanları arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu ve merhametin öznel iyi oluşun anlamlı bir yordayıcısı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca algılanan gelir düzeyi yüksek olan öğrencilerin öznel iyi oluşlarının algılanan gelir düzeyi alt ve orta olan öğrencilerden daha yüksek olduğu bulgulanmıştır. Son olarak öğrencilerin yaşamlarını geçirdikleri yerleşim yeri açısından merhamet ve öznel iyi oluş puanlarının anlamlı bir farklılık göstermediği saptanmıştır. Anahtar Sözcükler: Merhamet, öznel iyi oluş, gelir düzeyi Abstract This research aimed to investigate the predictive effect of university students' compassion levels on subjective well-being. In the study, the effect of perceived income level and residential area of the students on compassion and subjective well-being scores was also discussed. Totally 402 students including 198 female and 204 male between 18 and 32 years old participated into the research group. In the research, Compassion Scale, Subjective Well-Being Scale, and Personal Information Form were used. According to the research results, it was determined that there was a positive significant relationship between compassion and subjective well-being, and compassion was a significant predictor of subjective well-being. Furthermore, subjective well-being of the students with high perceived income level was proved to be higher rather than the subjective well-being of the students with perceived medium and lower income level. Consequently, it was also determined that compassion and subjective-well-being scores of the students did not differ significantly in terms of the residential area they spend their life. Key Words: Compassion, subjective well-being, level of income GirişMerhamet kavramı birçok din ve öğreti içerisinde kendisine geniş yer bulan bir kavramdır. Psikoloji alanında ise bu kavramın derinlemesine ele alınması son birkaç yıl içerisinde mümkün olmuştur. Önceleri empati, özgecilik, yakınlık ve prososyal davranış kavramları ekseninde ele alınan merhamet kavramı yapısının karmaşık olması empati ile benzerliği ve ölçümünün zor olması gibi nedenlerle psikolojinin konusu olmaktan uzak kalmıştır (Braun, 1992).Gilbert (2005)
