目的：研究表明，医生和医学生的共情措施随着临床培训而下降。目前，有有限的数据有关的自我报告的措施，观察到的行为。本研究探讨了一个自我报告的措施，并观察到共情在medical students.METHOD：学生在类2009年，在一所大学为基础的医学院，在他们的第二和第三年年底进行了调查。学生完成了杰斐逊量表的医生同情学生版（JSPE-S），自我管理的规模，并进行了评估，表现出移情行为在客观结构化临床考试（OSCEs.RESULTS）：97.6%和98.1%的合格学生参加了他们的第二和第三年，分别。JSPE-S和OSCE共情评分之间的总体相关性为0.22，p < 0.0001。与第三年相比，学生在第二年的自我报告JSPE-S得分更高（118.63 vs. 116.08，p < 0.0001），但观察到的同理心得分较低（3.96 vs. 4.15，p < 0.0001）。结论：自我管理量表测量的同理心下降，而观察到的同理心在接受更多医学训练的医学生中增加。
PURPOSE: Studies show that measures of physician and medical students' empathy decline with clinical training. Presently, there are limited data relating self-reported measures to observed behavior. This study explores a self-reported measure and observed empathy in medical students.METHOD: Students in the Class of 2009, at a university-based medical school, were surveyed at the end of their 2nd and 3rd year. Students completed the Jefferson Scale of Physician Empathy-Student Version (JSPE-S), a self-administered scale, and were evaluated for demonstrated empathic behavior during Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs).RESULTS: 97.6% and 98.1% of eligible students participated in their 2nd and 3rd year, respectively. The overall correlation between the JSPE-S and OSCE empathy scores was 0.22, p < 0.0001. Students had higher self-reported JSPE-S scores in their 2nd year compared to their 3rd year (118.63 vs. 116.08, p < 0.0001), but had lower observed empathy scores (3.96 vs. 4.15, p < 0.0001).CONCLUSIONS: Empathy measured by a self-administered scale decreased, whereas observed empathy increased among medical students with more medical training.
