To estimate the general empathy levels and the potential for empathic growth in Dentistry students and demonstrate that the empathic erosion model is not med.
Exploratory and cross-sectional study. Population: First- to fifth-year Dentistry students at Universidad San Sebastián, Santiago Campus (Chile). The total student population (N) was 800. The participants completed the Jefferson Scale of Empathy in its Spanish version for medical students, validated and adapted in Chile. A two-factor analysis of variance (model III) was applied to find differences in the means between academic years, between genders, and in the interaction between these two factors. The data were described using simple arithmetic graphs and then processed with SPSS 22.0. The total growth potential was estimated.
The Sample (n) consisted of 534 students (66.88% of the population studied, 2016). Differences were found between academic years and genders in general empathy and some of its components.
The behavior of empathy levels is not in line with the concept of empathic erosion. This suggests that empathic erosion is a particular and not a general phenomenon. There exists a considerable growth potential for empathy and its components.
评估牙科专业学生的一般共情水平及共情能力增长潜力，并证明共情侵蚀模型并不适用。
探索性横断面研究。研究对象：智利圣地亚哥校区圣塞巴斯蒂安大学牙科专业一至五年级学生。学生总数（N）为800人。参与者完成了西班牙语版的针对医学生的杰斐逊共情量表，该量表已在智利验证并改编。应用双因素方差分析（模型III）来找出学年之间、性别之间以及这两个因素之间相互作用的均值差异。数据用简单算术图表进行描述，然后用SPSS 22.0进行处理。估计了总的增长潜力。
样本（n）由534名学生组成（占2016年所研究总体的66.88%）。在一般共情及其一些组成部分方面，学年和性别之间存在差异。
共情水平的表现不符合共情侵蚀的概念。这表明共情侵蚀是一种特殊而非普遍现象。共情及其组成部分存在相当大的增长潜力。
