Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Empathy Quotent | Through study completion, an average of 1 week | It consists of 60 items, 40 measuring empathy and 20 control measures. Scores range from 0 to 80. It measures cognitive and affective empathy in adults. Equalizer allows classification into four categories, which facilitates comparison between groups. The cut-off for each level is: from 0 to 32 scores: low empathy (average scores in Asperger Syndrome is 20), from 33 to 52 scores: average empathy (average in men 42, average in women 47), from 53 to 63 scores: above average, from 64 to 80 scores: high empathy |
| State anxiety | Through study completion, an average of 1 week | The response scale is Likert-type with 4 alternatives (in the Spanish adaptation from 0 to 3). There are 20 items for evaluation. Thus, the range of responses goes from 0 to 60, with a higher level of anxiety corresponding to a higher score. |
| Anxiety as a trait | Through study completion, an average of 1 week | The response scale is Likert-type with 4 alternatives (in the Spanish adaptation from 0 to 3). Trait anxiety has 20 items for its evaluation. Thus, the range of responses goes from 0 to 60, with a higher level of anxiety corresponding to a higher score. |
| Abbreviated personality questionnaire | Through study completion, an average of 1 week | The EPQR-A is an abbreviated form of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. It is a 24-item self-report measure that leverages three personality scales (extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism) and a lie validity scale. Each scale is assessed by 6 questions that participants rate on a binary frequency scale scored 1 or 0. |
