摘要

This cross-sectional study investigates how perseverance influences life satisfaction among academics, highlighting the novel role of self-compassion and psychological flexibility as parallel mediators. A total of 305 academics from various universities in Türkiye (34% female, 66% male; Mage = 40.22, SD = 8.56) completed standardized measures of life satisfaction, perseverance, self-compassion, and psychological flexibility. Correlational analyses revealed positive associations among all variables. Structural equation modeling indicated that perseverance enhances self-compassion, which in turn promotes psychological flexibility, ultimately increasing life satisfaction. These findings clarify the psychological mechanisms through which perseverance supports well-being and provide evidence-based insights for developing interventions to reduce stress and foster resilience among higher education professionals.
