QUIZ: ARE YOU AN EMPATH?


Here's a well-balanced 15-question empathy quiz designed to assess your overall degree of empathy. It draws from established measures such as the Empathy Quotient (EQ), the Toronto Empathy Questionnaire, and the Interpersonal Reactivity Index, focusing on two main aspects:

  • Cognitive empathy: Understanding others' perspectives and emotions.
  • Affective empathy: Feeling or resonating with others' emotions.
