Cover Story: University students in Czech suffer from poor mental wellbeing. Research reports that students who are motivated to study and are kind toward and less judgmental of themselves tend to have a high level of mental wellbeing. These relationships had not been evaluated in Czech students. This study evaluated the relationships between mental wellbeing, motivation, self-compassion and self-criticism in this student group. Mental wellbeing was positively associated with intrinsic motivation and self-compassion, and negatively associated with amotivation and self-criticism. Self-compassion was the strongest predictor of mental wellbeing. Intrinsic motivation mediated the pathway from self-compassion to mental wellbeing, but not the one from self-criticism to mental wellbeing. Findings can help educators identify effective means to protect students’ mental wellbeing in the Czech Republic. View this paper
