Abstract

Empathy means the ability of understanding, being sensitive to the feelings of another object. It's an important factor for the benign doctor-patient relationship and patient's “physical and mental healing”. Empathy cultivation among the medical students helps them to get high empathy ability and will benefit their following career much. This article analyzed the current situation of cultivation and study of empathy in Chinese medical school students and found the common empathy level was in a middle level among medical students. The empathy level was influenced by sex, age, specialties, etc. The systemic cultivation of empathy for students was far from the needs. It is necessary to expand the studies of empathy among more medical specialties, then establish the appropriate cultivation methods for medical students to build up high empathy level.
