本研究在一项为期12年(1992-2004)的四波纵向研究中研究了自我报告的共情变化,以及共情与其他措施之间的关联,包括日常报告的关系经历。参与者最初的年龄从10岁到87岁不等。年龄与同理心的横向和纵向关联揭示了不同的模式。横断面分析表明,老年人的同理心得分低于年轻人,而纵向分析显示,同理心没有与年龄相关的下降。这种组合模式表明,横截面年龄差异反映了一个群体,而不是年龄效应,年龄较大的群体报告的同情心水平低于年轻人。与年龄无关,同理心与积极的幸福感有关(例如,生活满意度)和交互简档(例如,与他人的关系)。此外,一个子样本的参与者(n= 114)进行了为期一周的社会互动的经验采样。自我报告同情心高的人认为他们的互动更有意义,在这些互动中感觉更积极,并认为他们的互动伙伴也感觉更积极。因此,自我报告的共情与成年人的实际社会互动有意义的联系。
This study examined change in self-reported empathy in a four-wave longitudinal study spanning 12 years (1992–2004) and the association between empathy and other measures, including daily reports of relationship experiences. Participants initially ranged in age from 10 years to 87 years. Cross-sectional and longitudinal associations of age with empathy revealed divergent patterns. Whereas cross-sectional analyses suggested that older adults scored lower in empathy than younger adults, longitudinal analyses showed no age-related decline in empathy. This combined pattern suggests that the cross-sectional age-differences reflect a cohort rather than an age effect, with older cohorts reporting lower levels of empathy than younger ones. Independent of age, empathy was associated with a positive well-being (e.g., life satisfaction) and interaction profile (e.g., positive relations with others). In addition, a subsample of participants (n= 114) conducted experience-sampling about social interactions for a week. People with high self-reported empathy perceived their interactions as more meaningful, felt more positive in these interactions, and thought that their interaction partner felt also more positive. Thus, self-reported empathy was meaningfully associated with adults’ actual social interactions.
