Empathy versus Offending, Aggression, and Bullying is a comprehensive exploration of the measurement of empathy using the Basic Empathy Scale (BES) and its relationship to offending, aggression, and bullying in both community and incarcerated groups. Empathy is widely recognized as a crucial individual factor that contributes to these negative behaviors, and numerous intervention projects aim to enhance empathy as a means to reduce offending, aggression, and bullying.
The BES was developed by Jolliffe and Farrington in 2006 and has since been widely utilized in various countries. This book brings together chapters authored by a diverse range of contributors, each examining the application of the BES in ten different countries: England, Portugal, Spain, Poland, Italy, the Netherlands, Croatia, Australia, Canada, and the USA. Each chapter provides a review of the use of the BES in the respective jurisdiction, its psychometric properties, and its significance in relation to offending, aggression, and bullying. The research encompasses samples from primary schools, secondary schools, the community, individuals involved in the justice system, including those on probation and in prisons and secure psychiatric hospitals.
The book concludes with broader implications for intervention, policy, and practice. It will be an invaluable resource for students and scholars in criminology, psychology, and sociology, as well as practitioners seeking to deepen their understanding of the intricate link between empathy and a range of antisocial behaviors.
