Situational determinants of cognitive, affective, and compassionate empathy in naturalistic digital interactions

作者:

Highlights:

• Diary study examining the determinants of empathy in (text- and image-based) CMC.

• Participants reported greater cognitive than affective and compassionate empathy.

• Situational factors more important than individual differences in predicting empathy.

• Discrete contextual profiles for cognitive, affective, and compassionate empathy.

• Greater diary empathy predicted improved ratio of perceived CMC/face-to-face empathy.
