• Resumen

  • Self-criticism is often associated with major depression disorder and some psychological problems. Whether patient or normal, everybody knows the evaluation sense and does criticism in a routine basis, however the rate of this habit is different in each individual. This study examines the impact of self-criticism on well-being and vulnerability’s levels.255 samples (115 male, 140 female) from convenient sampling were included and responded to the scale of Self-criticism, SCL-25 and Ryff scale of Psychological well-being. A central point emerging from the literature review are mediated by the self-criticism role between well-being and mental and physical vulnerability. Both forms of Self-criticism negatively affected mental and physical vulnerability while just internal form of self-criticism lowered the well-being levels. Moreover our data shed light on the roles of Self-efficacy and human agency on the self-criticism levels and support the importance of human agency on well-being, life satisfaction and vulnerability.This findings have implication for future research to considering cultural and marital status of the participants in front of these variables and also examine the interventions of self-efficacy on vulnerability, well-being and the level of psychological problems.
