Ethnocultural Empathy

Ordinarily, empathy is roughly defined as an intellectual capacity of taking the role or perspective of other people or an emotional response to another person while using the same emotional display. Ethnocultural empathy identifies the understanding of feelings of individuals that are ethnically or culturally different from ones’ self. Ethnocultural empathy assumes that empathy to others probably increases if your other is similar to oneself in phrases of ethnicity, girl or boy, age, or ethnic background.
