| Key findings | The study proposes that mindfulness is positively associated with readiness to change, and this relationship is mediated by self-compassion and striving to compensate for inferiority. Specifically, mindfulness may enhance self-compassion, which in turn increases readiness to change, while reducing compensatory striving, which may otherwise hinder change. |
