COVID-19 is a widespread global health crisis that has serious and harmful consequences for mental health and social relationships. In such conditions, compassion can be a protective factor, and fear of compassion can increase vulnerability to psychosocial distress. Thus, it seems necessary to investigate the factors that may be involved in the fear of compassion for others. The aim of this study was the Prediction of fear of compassion for others in the coronavirus epidemic based on mindfulness and depression, anxiety, and stress. The method of this study was descriptive-correlational. The study population was residents of Tehran in 2021, and 510 of them participated online through virtual networks. The Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (Antony et al., 1998(, the Mindfulness Scale (Brown & Ryan, 2003), and the Fear of Compassion Questionnaire) Gilbert et al., 2011( were used to collect data. The results revealed a positive correlation between stress, depression, and anxiety components and fear of compassion for others, while mindfulness showed a negative correlation with it (p <0.01). The results of regression analysis also showed that only the stress component of the DASS scale and mindfulness could predict the fear of compassion for others. Hence, considering the present condition and the need for compassion and support in the face of coronavirus disease and vaccination, taking interventions to reduce psychological pathology and improve mindfulness that is involved in the fear of compassion for others can be helpful
