AbstractThis study aims at investigating the empathic dimension within Cognitive-Behavioural Psychotherapy (CBT). For the purpose of measuring emotional and predictive empathy, Questionnaire Measure of Emotional Empathy and Dymond Intuition and Empathy Scale have been applied. Our research focused on a thorough analysis related to the assessments and projections carried out by therapists and patients according to the hypostases offered by Dymond scale. The sets of criteria were: pleasant-unpleasant, cooperative-distant, relaxed-stressed, generous-selfish, assertive-non-assertive, decided-undecided. Empathic understanding fosters a type of collaboration between therapist and patient that allows for the effective execution of CB interventions.
