ABSTRACT
In common usage, empathic has several implications. We use the term frequently to characterize an individual of whom we approve. We describe him as an “empathic person.” By this appelation, we usually mean this person has a sensitive regard for his fellow man, likes people, is aware of and accommodates to their needs, is sympathetic with their causes and alert to how they are feeling. The person so described is, in short, a good human being.
