However, little is known about the potentially unique implications of different sources of support for different indicators of adjustment among parents, not to mention the possible underlying mechanism. This study examined the longitudinal associations of family, friend, and community support with changes in psychological, social, cognitive, and physical adjustment among Chinese parents of young children. It also tested whether these associations were mediated by self\u2010compassion. Questionnaire data were collected from 947 Chinese parents (88% mothers; 62% aged 31\u201340\u00a0years) of kindergarten\u2010aged children in Hong Kong, China, at two time points about 6\u00a0months apart. At Time 1, parents reported on their social support and self\u2010compassion. At Times 1 and 2, parents reported on their psychological, social, cognitive, and physical adjustment. Path analyses indicated that family support was associated with increases in psychological, social, and physical adjustment, although self\u2010compassion did not mediate these associations. Meanwhile, self\u2010compassion fully mediated the longitudinal associations of friend and community support with psychological, social, cognitive, and physical adjustment. Theoretically, findings underscored the potentially unique contributions of family, friend, and community support to parental adjustment and the importance of considering self\u2010compassion when studying the implications of social support. Practically, findings pointed to the possible utility of targeting social support and cultivating self\u2010compassion as means to enhance the adjustment of Chinese parents of young children.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/smi.70068","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,4]],"date-time":"2025-07-04T13:55:07Z","timestamp":1751637307000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Self\u2010Compassion Mediates the Longitudinal Associations of Perceived Social Support With Individual Adjustment Among Chinese Parents of Kindergarten\u2010Aged Children"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"41","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7710-1078","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shanshan","family":"Bi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Child and Family Science The Education University of Hong Kong  Hong Kong China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3195-7919","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chun Bun","family":"Lam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Child and Family Science The Education University of Hong Kong  Hong Kong China"},{"name":"Department of Early Childhood Education The Education University of Hong Kong  Hong Kong China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8105-7361","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kevin Kien Hoa","family":"Chung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Child and Family Science The Education University of Hong Kong  Hong Kong China"},{"name":"Department of Early Childhood Education The Education University of Hong Kong  Hong Kong China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/smi.3289"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/geront\/gnt118"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.20982\/tqmp.15.1.p038"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/10705511.2012.687671"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471\u20102318\u201013\u2010122"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12671\u2010023\u201002088\u20106"},{"issue":"10","key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","first-page":"381","article-title":"To Validate the Chinese Version of the 2Q and PHQ\u20109 Questionnaires in Hong Kong Chinese Patients","volume":"29","author":"Cheng C.","year":"2007","journal-title":"Hong Kong Practitioner"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/smi.3520"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jftr.12257"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12144\u2010024\u201005775\u20102"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/14805-018"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fpsyg.2021.637060"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/obo\/9780199828340-0204"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_15_1","volume-title":"Scale Development: Theory and Applications","author":"DeVellis R.
