三十年后,同理心在临床环境中的疗效仍然没有文献记载。最近,有人担心这个概念可能是不合适的,甚至对护患关系有害。对移情概念的分析表明,移情由道德、情感、认知和行为四个部分组成。通过追踪这一概念与护理的整合,我们认为,移情是不加批判地从心理学中采纳的,实际上并不适合护理实践的临床现实。目前被贬低的其他沟通策略,如同情、怜悯、安慰、同情和同情,需要重新审视,在疾病经历的某些阶段可能比同理心更合适。对今后的研究方向进行了展望。
After three decades, the efficacy of empathy in the clinical setting remains undocumented. Recently, concerns have been raised that the concept may be inappropriate and even harmful to the nurse-patient relationship. An analysis of the concept indicates that empathy consists of moral, emotive, cognitive and behavioral components. By tracing the integration of this concept into nursing, we suggest that empathy was uncritically adopted from psychology and is actually a poor fit for the clinical reality of nursing practice. Other communication strategies presently devalued, such as sympathy, pity, consolation, compassion and commiseration, need to be reexamined and may be more appropriate than empathy during certain phases of the illness experience. Directions for future research are suggested.
