Mechanisms for the formation of empathic culture of students of pedagogical and medical universities
Abstract
The relevance of this study is caused by the insufficient methodological development of the mechanisms and methods for the empathy formation among students of pedagogical and medical universities, which is an important professional competence of future teachers and doctors. The empathic culture of teachers and doctors is an integral part of the personal culture, a component of profession skill that requires purposeful formation and development. The purpose of the study is to theoretically substantiate and experimentally test the mechanisms of formation of the empathic culture in students of pedagogical and medical universities. The main research method is based on the selected diagnostics: 1. The method of diagnosis of communicative control (M. Schneider); 2. Assessment program of non-verbal communication (A.M. Kuznetsova); 3. Methodology ‘Balanced Emotional Empathy Scale’ (A. Mehrabian, E. Epstein). Results. In the profession of a doctor and teacher, we have demonstrated that empathy is an important professional quality. The majority of students of pedagogical and medical universities showed average levels of empathic culture. Emotional and activity channels of empathy are more developed among teachers, and cognitive channels are more developed among physicians. Practical significance. The results of the study can be used in the professional training of students of pedagogical and medical universities.
