Complementing the BDI, the Beck Anxiety Scale (BAI) aids in determining the gravity of anxiety symptoms.These sub-dimensions encompass the following: self-kindness vs. self-judgment (this subscale evaluates the extent to which individuals treat themselves with care and understanding versus harsh judgment), common humanity vs. isolation (this gauges the recognition of one's experiences as part of the larger human experience as opposed to feeling isolated and separated from others), and mindfulness vs. over identification (this dimension assesses the balanced awareness of painful feelings and thoughts, preventing individuals from being consumed by them).

Complementing the BDI, the Beck Anxiety Scale (BAI) aids in determining the gravity
of anxiety symptoms. Like the BDI, it is structured as a 21-item Likert scale, with the score
span stretching from 0 to 63. Studies confirming the validity and reliability of BAI for its
Turkish adaptation have been undertaken [17].
Developed by Neff, the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) measures the intricate facets of
self-compassion through six defining sub-dimensions. These sub-dimensions encompass
the following: self-kindness vs. self-judgment (this subscale evaluates the extent to which
individuals treat themselves with care and understanding versus harsh judgment), common
humanity vs. isolation (this gauges the recognition of one’s experiences as part of the
larger human experience as opposed to feeling isolated and separated from others), and
mindfulness vs. over identification (this dimension assesses the balanced awareness of
painful feelings and thoughts, preventing individuals from being consumed by them). The
SCS comprises a 26-item questionnaire, with responses anchored on a five-point Likert scale,
allowing participants to indicate the extent to which they identify with each statement,
providing a comprehensive view of their self-compassion levels. Validity and reliability
assessments have been carried out for the Turkish adaptation of SCS [18
