摘要

同理心是一种意识到并理解他人情绪、感受和想法的能力。评估牙科学生的同理心水平对于改善教育策略和患者治疗效果至关重要。目的:本研究的目的是评估布宜诺斯艾利斯大学(UBA)牙科专业学生的共情水平,并分析基于学年和性别的差异。材料和方法:该研究涉及UBA三至六年级的牙科学生。参与者提供知情同意并完成一份社会人口学调查问卷:杰弗逊共情量表-卫生保健提供者学生版(JSE-HPS)。数据分析包括描述性统计、性别和学年差异的t检验以及共情维度的评估。结果:424名受试者JSE-HPS平均得分为108.2 (SD = 15.0),评分范围为36 ~ 134。情感关怀和体恤关怀维度平均为35.7 (SD = 5.5),换位思考维度平均为59.0 (SD = 9.7),换位思考维度平均为13.4 (SD = 3.6)。共情得分从第三年(100.9,SD = 22.4)上升到第五年(111.5,SD = 10.0),第六年略有下降(110.6,SD = 12)。女性(平均109.0,SD = 15.5)比男性(平均104.4,SD = 12.2)表现出更高的同理心。结论:该研究揭示了UBA牙科专业学生的同理心水平较高,但因学年和性别而异。这些发现强调了将移情融入牙科教育的重要性,并建议需要调整课程以进一步提高与移情相关的技能。未来的研究应该探索干预措施来维持和提高牙科学生和教师的同理心水平,最终使患者和医疗保健提供者都受益。

Empathy: A challenge for the new generations of dentistry students at the University of Buenos Aires.

Empathy is the ability to be aware of and understand the emotions, feelings and ideas of others. Assessing empathy levels among dental students is essential for improving educational strategies and patient outcomes.

Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the levels of empathy among dental students at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) and analyze differences based on academic year and gender.

Materials and method: The study involved third- to sixth-year dental students at UBA. Participants provided informed consent and completed a sociodemographic questionnaire: the Jefferson Scale of Empathy - Health Care Provider Student version (JSE-HPS). Data analysis included descriptive statistics, t-tests for gender and academic year differences, and assessment of empathy dimensions.

Results: Among 424 participants, the average JSE-HPS score was 108.2 (SD = 15.0), ranging from 36 to 134. The dimension of emotional and compassionate care had a mean of 35.7 (SD = 5.5), perspective taking had a mean of 59.0 (SD = 9.7) and standing in the patient's shoes had a mean of 13.4 (SD = 3.6). Empathy scores increased from the third year (100.9, SD = 22.4) to the fifth year (111.5, SD = 10.0), with a slight drop in the sixth year (110.6, SD = 12). Females (mean 109.0, SD = 15.5) displayed higher empathy than males (mean 104.4, SD = 12.2).

Conclusion: The study revealed high levels of empathy among dental students at UBA, with variations by academic year and gender. These findings underscore the importance of incorporating empathy into dental education and suggest the need for curricular adjustments to further enhance empathy-related skills. Future research should explore interventions to sustain and improve empathy levels among dental students and faculty, ultimately benefiting both patients and healthcare providers.
