will use Google Forms and share the computer-based Table 1
questionnaire links on various online social media Descriptive Statistics of Respondent’s Characteristics
platforms, such as WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, (N=474)
Line, etc. For the person-to-person data collection, the
paper-and-pencil questionnaires will be printed out and
distributed directly by researchers to undergraduate
students several Indonesian universities. The data
collection process is planned to be carried out in
September 2022 – February 2023.
This study was tested using simple linear regression
analysis in the JASP 0.17.0.0 software. Prior to the
regression test, researchers ran through a set of
assumption tests (Field, 2018), consisting of normality
distributed errors, linearity, independent error, and
homoscedasticity.

Results
The period of data collection is September 2022 to
February 2023. In this study, 474 college students
between the ages of 17 and 25 (M=20.25, SD=1.52)
participated as respondents. Table 1 provides an
overview of the characteristics of the respondents. The
majority of respondents are female (85.65%), aged
between 20–22 years (60.13%), are undergoing
semester 5 (16.24%), studying at universities located in
Jabodetabek (54.85%), and studying humanities
(33.76%).
Table 2 displays the descriptive statistics of the self-
compassion and academic burnout variables, alongside
the dimensions of each variable. The total score of self-
compassion ranges from 1.3–4.5 (M=3.22; SD=0.52)
and the self-compassion component score ranges from
1.0–5.0. The total score of academic burnout ranges
from 16.0–17.30 (M=45.71; SD=9.06) and its
dimensions, denote the score variance from the lowest
to the highest.
T-test is conducted based on gender for self-compassion
and academic burnout. Since the data did not pass the
normality assumption test despite passing the
homogeneity of variance assumption test, researchers
used Mann-Whitney U Test (Table 2). There is no
significant difference in self-compassion between
female undergraduate students (M=3.22, SD=0.53) and
male undergraduate students (M=3.19, SD=0.47),
U=14.722, p>0.05. There is no significant difference in
the entirety of the self-compassion components between
male and female undergraduate students. Conversely,
academic burnout is shown to be significantly higher in
female undergraduate students (M=46.11, SD=8.98)
compared to male undergraduate students (M=43.34,
SD=9.27), U=16566.5, p<0.05. The same result is
shown in the Exhaustion and Cynicism dimensions, in
which the score of the female undergraduate students is
significantly higher than male undergraduate students,
with U=16875.0 and U=16011.0, respectively. Only the
Efficacy dimension shows no significant difference Before proceeding to linear regression tests, the
between female undergraduate students (M=18.68, underlying assumptions of linearity, independent,
SD=5.72) and male undergraduate students (M=18.85, homoscedasticity, and normally distributed errors have
SD=6.34), U=13470.0, p>0.05. all been met.
