Don't cry. As children develop, they become more aware of true distress and pseudo-distress. Three-year-olds, showed reduced empathy toward a "crybaby" (i.e., an individual who exaggerated their distress after being very mildly inconvenienced), than toward a person who was distressed after being more seriously harmed (Hepach et al., 2013). Younger children experience empathy only when the distressed person is present. As they grow older, they also respond to stories of other people's distress. By mid- to late childhood, they can respond with empathy to another person's general condition, such as being handicapped or poor. Adolescents are able to respond to difficulties experienced by groups of people, such as those who are politically oppressed, disease ridden, or undernourished. Cognitive advances allow older children and adolescents to understand the plight of less-fortunate groups and to respond with empathy (Eisenberg et al., 2003, 2015). At the same time, just as we prefer our own ethnic/ racial group over other groups, empathy and neural activity was found in response to witnessing a painful injection to be higher when a person of similar race is the injection recipient, rather than someone of another race (Azevedo et al., 2013). However, by prompting viewers to pay attention to the pain, rather than the race of the participant these race-related differences in empathy can be reduced. Need Assignment Help?
