本研究编制了共情自我效能感量表（PESE）和社会自我效能感量表（PSSE），分别用于测量个体对他人需求或感受的共情反应和人际关系管理的自我效能感。在这项对年轻人的研究中，在意大利、美国和玻利维亚发现了两种量表的一维因子结构。两个尺度在性别和国家之间均发现度量水平的完全不变性和标量水平的部分不变性。PESE和PSSE的结构和增量效度进行了进一步研究，在不同的意大利年轻人的样本。PESE或PSSE与自尊，心理健康，以及使用适应性和适应不良的应对策略的关联模式被发现，往往超出了他们的协会与同情或外倾，分别。
The Perceived Empathic Self-Efficacy Scale (PESE) and the Perceived Social Self-Efficacy Scale (PSSE) were developed to assess, respectively, individuals' self-efficacy beliefs regarding both empathic responding to others' needs or feelings and managing interpersonal relationships. In this study of young adults, a unidimensional factorial structure of both scales was found in Italy, the United States, and Bolivia. Complete invariance at the metric level and partial invariance at the scalar level were found across gender and countries for both scales. The construct and incremental validity of both PESE and PSSE were further examined in a different sample of Italian young adults. Patterns of association of the PESE or PSSE with self-esteem, psychological well-being, and the use of adaptive and maladaptive coping strategies were found, often over and beyond their associations with empathy or extraversion, respectively.
