Abstract

The purpose of this project was to carry out a bibliographic review on the techniques used to measure Empathy in research carried out in Colombia and the EUA from 2010 to 2020. To achieve this, a methodology whose design is non-experimental is used, in which a systematic exploration of a specific topic, followed by a classification and review, for this we used free and restricted access databases such as; Institutional Repository Universidad Antonio Nariño, ScienceDirect, University of Chicago, Oxford Academic, Repository Universidad Pontificia Javeriana, Repository Universidad de Antioquia, Repository Universidad de la Sabana, Scielo, Redalyc, and Google Académico, an initial sample of 62 studies is taken, 50 articles are selected for subsequent analysis, with respect to the results it is found that the most used instrument to measure empathy in both Colombia and the United States of America is the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI ), which uses self-report as an application method.
