Abstract

Important for vocational students to achieve psychological well-being amidst technological developments that increase self-critical behaviour. Information overload, increased self-com, and other psychological health issues can increase self-critical behaviour. This can hinder the achievement of the six dimensions of psychological well-being. So, it is necessary to know the correlation between these two variables in vocational students. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-criticism on psychological well-being in vocational students. A total of 1812 students were included, and participants completed assessments of self‐criticism and psychological well-being. The result is self-criticism and psychological well-being is in a medium category with scores M = 60.34; SD = 2.86 and M = 118.48; SD = 2.53 sequentially. Analyses assessed the extent to which the intercept and linear slope of self‐criticism were associated with assessments of psychological well‐being. Findings suggest that a decrease in self-criticism is associated with better psychological well-being in vocational students. There was a relationship between self-criticism and psychological well-being. The implication of this finding suggests applying intervention with a focus on reducing self-criticism to improve student’s psychological well-being.

Abstract

Mental health problems among university students, notably stress, anxiety, and depression, continue to increase, negatively impacting psychological functioning and academic performance. This study evaluated the effectiveness of an integrated Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Counseling (MBCC) and Construal Level Theory (CLT) intervention in improving students‘ mental health. A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with a control group was employed, with 24 participants (12 intervention, 12 control) selected via purposive sampling. Instruments included DASS-21, the Five-Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire, and a CLT-based psychological distance scale. MANOVA results showed a significant multivariate effect of the intervention (Wilks’ Λ = .68; F(3, 21) = 3.28; p = .041; η2 = .32). Univariate analyses indicated significant reductions in psychological distress (p = .005), and significant increases in mindfulness (p = .002) and psychological distance (p = 0.023). These findings suggest that the integrated MBCC-CLT intervention is effective in enhancing mental health among university students by reducing distress and promoting adaptive awareness and cognitive appraisal.
