Abstract

The aim of this study was to develop a Multidimensional Questionnaire of Empathy for Adolescents, since a model of cognitive social neuroscience, operationalizing the dimensions of emotional contagion, self-awareness, perspective-taking, emotional regulation, and empathic attitude. For the psychometric study of the instrument, 320 young adolescents in school participated, from both genders (125 male, 195 female), aged 13 to 16 (M = 14.23; SD = .95). The discriminant power of the items was evaluated, as well as the underlying structure of the instrument, its internal consistency, and different evidences of external, convergent, discriminant, and group-comparison validity. The results indicated that all the items were discriminative. The adjustment indexes of confirmatory factorial analysis allowed confirming the pentafactorial structure of the scale, consisting of 15 items. The internal consistency indexes of the different dimensions were between moderate and adequate. Likewise, differences in empathy between men and women were analyzed, the results of which indicated differences in favor of women. The different collected evidences of validity were consistent with what was expected theoretically. In this way it is possible to conclude that this Multidimensional Empathy Questionnaire for Adolescents (CMEA) is a valid and reliable measure for the evaluation of empathy in adolescents.

西班牙语早、中期青少年共情多维度问卷。
摘要本研究以认知社会神经科学为模型,编制了青少年共情多维度问卷,对情绪感染、自我意识、换位思考、情绪调节和共情态度等维度进行了操作。针对该工具的心理测量学研究,共有320名13 - 16岁的在校青少年(男125名,女195名)参与其中(M = 14.23;Sd = .95)。评估了项目的判别能力,以及工具的基础结构,其内部一致性,以及外部,收敛,判别和组比较效度的不同证据。结果表明,所有条目均具有判别性。验证性析因分析的调整指标可以确定量表的五因子结构,包括15个项目。各维度的内部一致性指标均在中等与适当之间。同样,研究人员还分析了男性和女性在共情方面的差异,结果表明男性更倾向于女性。收集到的不同效度证据与理论预期一致。由此可以得出结论,该多维青少年共情问卷(CMEA)是一种有效、可靠的青少年共情测评方法。
