Abstract:

This thought-provoking volume offers psychological perspectives on the formation of empathy and how this determines both antisocial and prosocial behaviors in individuals. It offers a theoretically grounded and empirically proven integrated approach, helping readers gain a holistic understanding of human nature, and the need for empathic interaction between people. Larysa Zhuravlova and Oleksiy Chebykin study the evolution of empathy, peculiarities from birth to old age, and its role in the moral and spiritual development of a person. Key sections explore: Theoretical and methodological principles of empathy research; genesis and development of human empathy; phylogenetic preconditions for empathy; psychological features of the ontogenesis of empathy; key factors in personality development and the experimental study of empathy. Considering a vision for a society based on empathic relationships, which could be a deterrent to discrimination, help resolve problems of environmental issues, harmonize interpersonal relationships and resolve conflict, this new text is for advanced students of developmental, and educational psychology.
