The participants’ parents filled the socio-demographic data form and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), and the children and adolescents filled an Index of Empathy for Children and Adolescents.Results:The girls’ empathy level was statistically significantly higher than boys (p=0.039).
