Resumen
La empatía ha sido relacionada con un sin número de variables psicológicas entre ellas el comportamiento prosocial, la agresión, y las relaciones intergrupales. En nuestro estudio, se evaluó la asociación entre la empatía y el modelo de los cinco grandes de personalidad. Como hipótesis general de la investigación sugerimos que la empatía iba a estar positivamente asociada con la amabilidad, la apertura a la experiencia, y la responsabilidad; mientras que negativamente asociada a la extraversión y no relacionada al neuroticismo. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 117 estudiantes universitarios de ambos sexos, entre los 21 y 60 años de edad. Se utilizaron análisis de correlaciones bivariadas y un análisis de regresión múltiple jerárquico para evaluar las hipótesis. Se controló el género de los participantes en el primer paso del análisis de regresión. En coincidencia con las hipótesis planteadas la amabilidad, la apertura a la experiencia, y la responsabilidad estuvieron positivamente asociados a la empatía. La amabilidad, la apertura a la experiencia, la responsabilidad, y la extraversión también hicieron aportes estadísticamente significativos a la predicción de la empatía.
Relationship Between Empathy and Big-Five Personality Factors in a College Student Sample. Empathy has been associated with many psychological variables such as prosocial behavior, aggression, and intergroup relations. In our study the relationship between empathy and the big five personality model was evaluated. The general hypothesis in our study is that empathy is positively associated with agreeableness, openness to experience, and conscientiousness; while negatively associated with extraversion and not associatedwith neuroticism. The sample consisted of 117 male and female university students between 21 and 60 years old, assessed with regionally validated measures. Bivariate correlations and a hierarchical multiple regression were used to test the hypotheses. The effects of gender were controlled in the first step of the regression analysis. Consistent with the hypotheses, agreeableness, openness to experience, and conscientiousness were positively correlated with empathy. In the multiple regression analysis, agreeableness, openness to experience, conscientiousness, and extraversion also made statistically significant contributions in the prediction of empathy
