Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI)

The Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) is a measure of dispositional empathy that takes as its starting point the notion that empathy consists of a set of separate but related constructs. The instrument contains four seven-item subscales, each tapping into a separate facet of empathy.

In YOUth, only the subscales Empathic concern (EC) and Perspective taking (PT) were included.
