The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the Self-Compassionate Mindfulness Psychoeducation Program on internalized stigma, emotion regulation, and forgiveness among adolescents involved in delinquency under prison conditions. Objectives Objective 1: To develop a Self-Compassionate Mindfulness Psychoeducation Program for juveniles involved in delinquency and to ensure its content validity. Objective 2: To conduct a pilot implementation of the developed psychoeducation program. Objective 3: To administer pre-tests to juveniles involved in delinquency using psychometrically validated and reliable scales to assess levels of internalized stigma, emotion regulation, and forgiveness.

H₀ Hypothesis: The Self-Compassionate Mindfulness Psychoeducation Program administered to juveniles involved in delinquency in a prison setting does not affect the mean scores of internalized stigma, emotion regulation, and forgiveness in the experimental group. H₁a Hypothesis: The Self-Compassionate Mindfulness Psychoeducation Program administered to juveniles involved in delinquency in a prison setting decreases the mean scores of internalized stigma in the experimental group. H₁b Hypothesis: The Self-Compassionate Mindfulness Psychoeducation Program administered to juveniles involved in delinquency in a prison setting increases the mean scores of emotion regulation in the experimental group. H₁c Hypothesis: The Self-Compassionate Mindfulness Psychoeducation Program administered to juveniles involved in delinquency in a prison setting increases the mean scores of forgiveness in the experimental group.
