“…35 Beyond, reacting empathically to one's patients may be conceptualized as a buffer, but also as a catalyst of work-related strain, or even be considered a form of coping strategy in dealing with patients. 36 Consequently, empathy training may include how to react empathically in a reflected way, that is differentiating between the patient's and one's own emotions, in order to stay healthy in the long term. 37 Integrating such a reflected form of empathy may add to current training in both, oncology and mental health.…”

Cancer may be associated with notable impairments of health-related quality of life, psychological distress and depression. 1,2 Thus, cancer and mental health are interrelated. Consultation, specifically in oncology, is associated with many challenges, such as communicating the diagnosis and defining an adequate point in time for discussing psychosocial aspects. 3 Disclosing a mental disorder may be just as challenging for practitioners due to, for instance, not knowing patients' information needs or lacking the strategies to discuss a diagnosis. 4 Thus, not discussing a mental disorder

“…It is proved that it is one of the factors of constructive communication, the manifestation of which is characterized by understanding and accepting the state of another person, compassion for him, representing himself in his place, feeling the same as another person, not using himself as a benchmark in assessing other people, lack of categoricity in assessing people, the ability to take into account the characteristics of character, habits, attitudes of other people (Smith, 2006). Most researchers emphasize that empathy is not just identification with different people, congruence with their opinions, correlation with their views, but also the basis of altruistic and respectful attitudes towards others (Altmann & Roth, 2020;Boyko, 1996;Galiullina, 2020;Shafikova, 2019;Zhuravlev, 2017).…”

The work examines ideas about the peculiarities of empathy and strategies of behavior in conflict situations of young men 21-22 years old. It was found that at this age, the average level of empathy prevails, which is characterized by a selective attitude towards people, the ability to separate their and other people's emotions in communication, understand the experiences of the other and take them into account when interacting. A third of students show a high level of empathy, are distinguished by the ability to maintain friendships, easy understanding and empathy of other people's emotions. From the sample, significant gender differences in the manifestation of empathy in favor of girls were calculated. Also, students of a technical university have revealed values of the conflict coefficient above the average, although compromise, avoidance and cooperation are the predominant strategies for behavior in the conflict. It is determined that the average values of all strategies of behavior in conflict, except the strategy of adaptation, are in the range of the average level of development. We also proved that there are gender differences in the manifestation of behavior strategies in conflict and the level of development of empathy in late adolescence. Girls are dominated by compromise behavior, and guys are dominated by adaptive behavior in conflict.

“…En el marco de la relación médico-paciente, algunos estudios han encontrado que altos niveles de Burnout están asociados con una disminución en la empatía, competencia básica y no técnica de la atención en salud (Reinolds et al, 2021;Wilkinson et al, 2017); sin embargo, otros estudios llevados a cabo con residentes de distintas especialidades resaltan que la empatía puede desempeñar un factor protector del desarrollo de Burnout (Picard et al, 2016). Así, las investigaciones actuales no han logrado un consenso sobre la relación entre los niveles de empatía y de Burnout (Altman y Roth, 2021).…”

Los médicos están expuestos a altos niveles de presión laboral, lo que conduce a un mayor riesgo de Burnout. La empatía es el reconocimiento cognitivo y afectivo del estado de ánimo y situación de una persona. La compasión es una respuesta al reconocimiento del sufrimiento del paciente y al deseo de reducirlo. Objetivos: explorar la relación entre empatía, compasión y Burnout en estudiantes y profesionales médicos y otras variables relacionadas con el síndrome. Método: 143 médicos y estudiantes respondieron un cuestionario sociodemográfico, el MBI, el TECA y la Escala de Compromiso y Acción Compasivos. Resultados: el 41,9 % mostró altos niveles de agotamiento emocional, el 21 % despersonalización y el 19,5 % bajos niveles de realización personal. Los niveles de Burnout se asociaron negativamente con la percepción de equilibrio entre la vida social, familiar y laboral, la compasión y la edad; F(5, 92) = 11,012, p < 0,00; (p < 0,05). La fatiga emocional interrumpió el desarrollo de comportamientos relacionados con la autocompasión y disminuyó la percepción de éxito. Conclusiones: para que los médicos tengan niveles óptimos de empatía afectiva y compasión, es fundamental el desarrollo de empatía cognitiva y habilidades de regulación emocional. Estos son factores protectores de Burnout.
