“…First, perspective taking skills may decrease the likelihood that a person may perceive provoking events in a way that could EMPATHY, ANGER AND AGGRESSIVENESS 7 result in blame. Research showing that empathy is negatively associated with cognitive distortions, such as attribution of blame (Barriga, Sullivan-Cosetti, & Gibbs, 2009;Larden, Melin, Holst, & Langstrom, 2006) supports this argument. Second, perspective taking may be influenced by provocation.…”

“…Previous studies have found the link between moral disengagement and different moral emotions. For example, moral disengagement has been negatively associated with empathy (Almeida, Correia, & Marinho, 2010;Barriga, Sullivan-Cosetti, & Gibbs, 2009;Hyde et al, 2010) and feelings of guilt regarding moral transgressions (Bandura et al, 1996;. In Obermann's (2011b) study, so-called "unconcerned passive bystanders" displayed a higher level of moral disengagement compared with defenders and "guilty passive bystanders."…”

“…Nas et al (2008) Las distorsiones cognitivas auto-sirvientes eran más elevadas en los adolescentes delincuentes instiucionalizados que en adolescentes no delincuentes. Barriga et al (2009) La madurez en el juicio moral estaba asociado con una mayor empatía, mientras que un uso extensivo de distorsiones cognitivas auto-sirvientes estaba asociado con una empatía baja, en delincuentes juveniles. Wallinius et al (2011) El HIT-Q discriminaba entre un grupo de delincuentes adultos encarcelados y una muestra de estudiantes universitarios, mostrando éstos últimos un menor nivel de distorsiones cognitivas auto-sirvientes que los delincuentes Capuano (2011) Los varones delincuente presentaron mayores niveles de distorsiones cognitivas y de agresión social que los no delincuentes.…”

“…Por otra parte, las distorsiones cognitivas auto-sirvientes correlacionaron negativamente con las habilidades sociales y con la empatía con la víctima tras una agresión. Barriga, Sullivan-Cosetti y Gibbs (2009) investigaron las relaciones entre empatía, madurez en el juicio moral, identidad moral y distorsiones cognitivas auto-sirvientes con una muestra de delincuentes juveniles con edades comprendidas entre los 13 y los 21 años. Los resultados mostraron que la madurez en el juicio moral estaba asociada con una mayor empatía, mientras que un uso extensivo de distorsiones cognitivas auto-sirvientes estaba asociado con una empatía baja.…”
