To analyze the empathizing and systemizing profiles of Brazilian and Portuguese nursing undergraduates.
Empathy is a fundamental skill for nursing practice and should be analyzed during the student's education.
Descriptive study with cross-sectional design. Participants were 968 undergraduate students, including 215 (22.2%) Brazilians from a university in the state of São Paulo and 753 (77.8%) Portuguese students from a higher education institution in central Portugal. The Portuguese and Brazilian versions of the have good internal consistency and reliability.
In Brazil, approval for the study was obtained from the Research Ethics Committee of the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto College of Nursing (protocol 191/2016) and in Portugal, from the Ethics Committee of the Health Sciences Research Unit: Nursing, Coimbra Higher School of Nursing (protocol P362-09/2016).

分析巴西和葡萄牙护理本科生的共情和系统思维特征。
共情是护理实践的基本技能，应在学生教育期间进行分析。
描述性的、具有横断面设计的研究。参与者包括 968 名本科学生，其中 215 名（22.2%）是来自巴西圣保罗州某大学的学生，753 名（77.8%）是来自葡萄牙中部某高等教育机构的学生。问卷的葡萄牙语和巴西语版本具有良好的内部一致性和可靠性。
在巴西，该研究得到了圣保罗大学里贝朗普雷托护理学院研究伦理委员会的批准（协议 191/2016），在葡萄牙，得到了健康科学研究单位伦理委员会的批准：护理，科英布拉高等护理学院（协议 P362-09/2016）。
大多数（86%）参与者是女性，年龄在 20 至 24 岁之间。在两组之间的总体特征分析中，“社交技能”“内容”和“过程”这三个领域的得分较高。在共情和系统思维的性别差异方面，女性在共情量表的简短版本上得分较高，而男性在系统思维量表上得分较高。
正如“社交技能”“内容”和“过程”等领域的分数所表明的那样，分析中的护理本科学生具有直观、自发地处理社交情境的能力；他们也被认为是有条理的人，喜欢遵循规则，实践经验优于理论，女性的共情水平高于男性，而男性的系统思维水平更高。
