Introdu??o: S?o poucos os estudos que em Portugal se dedicaram a explorar constructos como o autocriticismo, autocompaix?o, sa?de mental e o comprometimento organizacional. S?o nossos objetivos analisar estas associa??es na Pol?cia de Seguran?a P?blica, considerando igualmente a influ?ncia de vari?veis sociodemogr?ficas e profissionais, bem como realizar an?lises preditivas que permitam verificar quais s?o as vari?veis preditores do comprometimento organizacional. Metodologia: A amostra ? constitu?da por 188 pol?cias com idades compreendidas entre os 30 e 56 anos (M = 43,75, DP = 5,66). Os participantes preencheram um protocolo integrante do projeto Organizar Positivamente do Instituto Superior Miguel Torga, composto por um question?rio sociodemogr?fico, a SELFCS (Escala da Autocompaix?o), a FSCRS (Escala das Formas do Autocriticismo e Autotranquiliza??o), o MHI-5 (Mental Health Inventory) e o QCO (Question?rio do Comprometimento Organizacional). Resultados: Os pol?cias parecem regular a sua rela??o com a organiza??o atrav?s do comprometimento calculativo. A autocompaix?o associa-se positivamente ao comprometimento afetivo, sobressaindo a capacidade de mindfulness. O autocriticismo, na forma eu inadequado - menos corrosivo que a forma eu detestado -, revela uma rela??o positiva com o comprometimento calculativo, pelo que a perman?ncia na organiza??o pode ser emocionalmente negativa, originar ataques ao eu e diminuir a capacidade afetiva. Por?m, a capacidade autotranquilizadora (forma eu tranquilizador do autocriticismo) parece capacitar os pol?cias para o desenvolvimento de maiores n?veis de comprometimento organizacional e afetivo. A idade, a antiguidade e menos habilita??es liter?rias parecem favorecer o comprometimento calculativo. Discuss?o: A autocompaix?o pode contribuir para uma atitude positiva e afetuosa do pol?cia para com a organiza??o. Assim, atrav?s de uma interven??o baseada na autocompaix?o e no mindfulness, com impacto positivo no comportamento afetivo e normativo, n?o s? se poder? preservar e promover a sa?de e o bem-estar dos pol?cias, mas tamb?m fomentar o empenho organizacional, atenuando os efeitos negativos da profiss?o policial. Esta abordagem poder? contribuir para os objetivos organizacionais, atrav?s da supress?o das emo??es aversivas, da diminui??o da inten??o de turnover e abandono da organiza??o. / Introduction: There are few studies in Portugal that have been dedicated to explore constructs such as self-criticism, self-compassion, mental health and organizational commitment. Our goals are to analyze these associations at the Public Safety Police, considering also the influence of sociodemographic and professionals variables, as well as to conduct predictive analyses, in order to verify which variables may predict organizational commitment. Methodology: The sample consisted of 188 police with ages between 30 and 56 years (M = 43.75, SD = 5.66). The participants filled in a protocol from the project Organizar Positivamente, from Instituto Superior Miguel Torga, composed by a sociodemographic questionnaire, the SELFCS (Self-Compassion Scale), the FSCRS (Scale of Forms of Self-Criticism and Self-Reassurance, the MHI-5 (Mental Health Inventory) and the QCO (Organizational Commitment Questionnaire). Results: The police officers appear to regulate their relationship with the organization through calculative commitment. Self-compassion is associated positively to affective commitment, with mindfulness showing to be the most important competence in this professional group. Self-criticism, in its inadequate self form ? which is less corrosive than the hated self form - reveals a positive relationship with calculative commitment, which might imply that staying in the organization may be emotionally negative, may provoke attacks against the self and diminish the affective capacity. However, the self reassurance capacity (reassure self form of self-criticism) may enable the police officers to develop higher levels of organizational commitment and affective commitment, as well. Age, seniority and fewer qualifications seem to support the calculative commitment. Discussion: Through self-compassion police officers may experience a positive and warmth attitude towards the organization. Thus, an intervention program based on self-compassion and mindfulness may stimulate affective and normative commitment, not only preserving and promoting health and the well-being of police officers, but also fostering organizational commitment and mitigating negative effects in the police profession. This approach may contribute to organizational goals? through the suppression of aversive emotions, decreasing turnover and intention to abandon the organization.
