CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Any questions left?

What does this questionnaire measure?

It measures emotional empathy, or the tendency to feel and share another person’s emotional experience. It focuses on emotional responsiveness rather than cognitive perspective-taking.

How is the questionnaire completed?

Read each statement and select the response option that best matches typical reactions. Answer based on usual behavior rather than isolated events.

How long does it take and how many items are included?

Completion time is about 4 minutes. The questionnaire includes 33 statements.

How should the results be interpreted?

Scores estimate the degree of sensitivity to others’ emotions and the tendency to become emotionally involved. Interpretation should consider context and should not be used as a stand-alone diagnostic conclusion.

Is there a shorter version, and should it be used instead?

A shorter 25-item form exists, but its adaptation may not be established in some settings. The full 33-item form is commonly used when a validated version is required.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Emotional Empathy Questionnaire (EETS) Test

empathy

This self-report measure assesses individual differences in emotional empathy, focusing on the tendency to share and resonate with others’ emotional experiences. The Emotional Empathy Questionnaire (EETS) uses brief statements to sample affective responsiveness across common interpersonal and social situations.

The instrument contains 33 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Responses are summed to yield an index of emotional empathic tendency that may be used as a descriptive measure in clinical, counseling, occupational, or research contexts, with interpretation informed by the assessment setting and other relevant data. The Emotional Empathy Questionnaire (EETS) is generally administered in standard paper-and-pencil or electronic formats.
