Abstract
The healthy and happy human living revolves around establishing and maintaining stable relationships with each other. The life experiences pose whether these meaningful relationships are considered important for the well-being of individuals and communities. People constantly strive for cordial interactions with others, on one side, to avoid psycho-physiological damages such as loneliness and disapproval from others and on the other side, to shape their life meaningfully and grow purposefully. Empathy has been considered a vital component of one’s social cognition that contributes to one’s ability to understand and respond adaptively to others’ emotions that promotes prosocial behaviour in interpersonal relationships and communications. Empathy enhances cognitive abilities and emotional stability thus promoting well being in interpersonal relationships (Preston & de Wall, 2002). The human qualities, for instance, attraction, love, kinship, friendship, jealousy, betrayal, forgiveness, communication, conflict and aggression are either positively or negatively connected to human relationship domain and vital for the wellbeing at all levels. And, for upholding wellbeing and interpersonal relationships, the predominant and promising dynamic seems to be the psychological component of empathy. The present presentation pungently brings out the conceptual details on the concept of empathy along with its imperative role in enhancing interpersonal affinity or relationships in enhancing wellbeing in general. This paper is presented to establish that empathy enhances the interpersonal relationship and well-being across the life span.
人类健康快乐的生活围绕着建立和保持稳定的人际关系。生活经验表明,这些有意义的关系是否对个人和社区的福祉很重要。人们不断地努力与他人进行亲切的互动,一方面是为了避免心理上的伤害,如孤独和他人的不赞成,另一方面是为了有意义地塑造自己的生活,有目的地成长。移情被认为是社会认知的重要组成部分,它有助于一个人理解和适应他人情绪的能力,从而促进人际关系和沟通中的亲社会行为。同理心可以增强认知能力和情绪稳定性,从而促进人际关系的健康发展(Preston & de Wall, 2002)。人类的品质,例如吸引力、爱、亲情、友谊、嫉妒、背叛、宽恕、沟通、冲突和侵略,都与人类关系领域有积极或消极的联系,对各个层面的幸福都至关重要。而且,为了维护幸福和人际关系,主要的和有前途的动力似乎是移情的心理组成部分。本报告尖锐地提出了移情概念的概念细节,以及它在增强人际亲和力或关系方面的重要作用。本研究旨在证明共情能在人的一生中提升人际关系与幸福感。
