Summary

This study tested a smartphone app called Compas-Y, designed to help people with cancer manage emotional distress through self-compassion exercises. 28 adults who had finished cancer treatment and felt low well-being used the app for 6 weeks. Researchers measured changes in self-compassion, self-criticism, and mood to see if the app was helpful and easy to use.
