Zusammenfassung:This study investigates the mediating roles of spiritual well-being and belief in fate in the relationship between patience and self-compassion among university students. The research was conducted with 670 students. Data were collected using the "Patience Scale", "Self-Compassion Scale," "Theistic Fate Perception Scale," and a "Personal Information Form." Analyses were performed using Process Macro Model 4 and Model 8. The findings indicate no significant relationship between self-compassion and spiritual well-being. However, an optimistic prediction was identified between spiritual well-being and patience. Furthermore, the study's findings have significant implications. It was found that spiritual well-being does not serve as a mediating role in the relationship between self-compassion and patience. Instead, belief in fate plays a regulatory role that strengthens the relationship between self-compassion and spiritual well-being. Among individuals with a high belief in fate, the prediction of spiritual well-being by self-compassion becomes more pronounced. Moreover, belief in fate regulates the indirect prediction of patience by self-compassion through spiritual well-being, opening up new avenues for research and practice. A number of limitations regarding this study are also noted.
