Correction to: The Relationship Among the Components of Self-compassion: A Pilot Study Using a Compassionate Writing Intervention to Enhance Self-kindness, Common Humanity, and Mindfulness

There was an error in computing total self-compassion, which changes one of the minor results of the paper. We reported that total self-compassion only improved significantly for the common humanity and mindfulness conditions, but not for the self-kindness condition. However, with the corrected computation, all three conditions, including the self-kindness condition, display significantly higher total self-compassion after the treatment. An updated version of Table 2 has been added to this erratum. We also corrected a minor formatting issue on Table 2.
