| Summary: | <p style="text-align: justify;">A comparison was made between each other at the level of subscales of the Boyko empathy questionnaire and the EmIn questionnaire. Additionally, the subscales of the questionnaires were compared with the results of the genetic analysis of COMT, DRD4, 5HTR2A. It is shown that the subscales of the questionnaires are mutually complementary. The revealed relationships of gene polymorphism with a number of subscales of both the Boyko empathy questionnaire and the EmIn questionnaire as a whole do not contradict existing data on the mechanisms in the regulation of which the studied genes are involved. At the same time, empathy, as measured by Boyko's questionnaire, is obviously not a monolithic construct. We believe that the final indicator of EEI, measured by the EmIn questionnaire, should also not be considered as a monolithic construct.</p> |
