Abstract. Self-compassion is an attitude of compassion toward oneself when facing difficulties or stress at work, while work engagement is a positive psychological state characterized by enthusiasm, dedication, and full involvement in one’s work. Nurses in the inpatient division face simultaneous physical, administrative, and emotional work demands, which have the potential to reduce their psychological energy and work engagement. This study aims to determine the effect of self-compassion on work engagement among nurses in the inpatient division at RSI Assyifa in Sukabumi. The study used a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The study sample consisted of 84 nurses in the inpatient division, selected using a population-based approach. Data were collected from primary sources via questionnaires using the Self-compassion Scale (SCS) and the Utrecht Work engagement Scale-17 (UWES-17), and analyzed using simple linear regression. The results showed a significant positive relationship between self-compassion and work engagement (p = 0.000 < 0.05), with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.612 and a coefficient of determination (R²) of 37.4%. These findings indicate that nurses with higher levels of self-compassion tend to cope with job demands more adaptively, thereby maintaining their energy, dedication, and engagement at work. Thus, self-compassion is one of the factors that plays a role in enhancing work engagement among inpatient division nurses, although there are other factors that also influence it.
Abstrak. Self-compassion merupakan sikap welas asih terhadap diri sendiri ketika menghadapi kesulitan atau tekanan dalam pekerjaan, sedangkan work engagement merupakan kondisi psikologis positif yang ditandai vigor, dedication, dan absorption dalam pekerjaan. Perawat divisi rawat inap menghadapi tuntutan kerja yang bersifat fisik, administratif, dan emosional secara bersamaan, sehingga berpotensi menurunkan energi psikologis dan keterlibatan kerja. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh self-compassion terhadap work engagement pada perawat divisi rawat inap di RSI Assyifa Kota Sukabumi. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain korelasional. Subjek penelitian berjumlah 84 perawat divisi rawat inap, dipilih menggunakan pendekatan studi populasi. Data dikumpulkan dari sumber primer melalui kuesioner menggunakan instrumen Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) atau Skala Welas Diri (SWD) dan Utrecht Work engagement Scale-17 (UWES-17), diolah menggunakan regresi linear sederhana. Hasil menunjukkan terdapat pengaruh positif antara self-compassion terhadap work engagement (p = 0,000 < 0,05), dengan koefisien korelasi (R) sebesar 0,612 dan koefisien determinasi (R²) sebesar 37,4%. Temuan ini mengindikasikan perawat dengan self-compassion lebih tinggi cenderung menghadapi tuntutan pekerjaan secara lebih adaptif sehingga tetap mempertahankan vigor, dedication, dan absorption dalam bekerja. Dengan demikian, self-compassion merupakan salah satu faktor yang berperan meningkatkan work engagement pada perawat divisi rawat inap, meskipun masih terdapat faktor lain yang turut memengaruhinya.
