De los datos <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong> tab<strong>la</strong> prece<strong>de</strong>nte se <strong>de</strong>spren<strong>de</strong> que un alto porcentaje <strong>de</strong><br />

estudiantes pudo encontrar <strong>la</strong> información explícita requerida. Los porcentajes más<br />

altos se observan en <strong>la</strong> <strong>de</strong>finición <strong>de</strong>l concepto interpersonal trust. Una posible<br />

interpretación <strong>de</strong> este resultado es que este concepto está <strong>de</strong>finido con c<strong>la</strong>ridad en el<br />

párrafo cinco don<strong>de</strong> se cita a un autor y se utiliza el verbo <strong>de</strong>finir para introducir <strong>la</strong><br />

<strong>de</strong>finición. A<strong>de</strong>más, en <strong>la</strong> siguiente oración se enumeran <strong>la</strong>s características <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong><br />

confianza interpersonal. Creemos que en este caso el texto facilitó c<strong>la</strong>ramente <strong>la</strong><br />

búsqueda <strong>de</strong>l concepto.<br />

A key factor contributing to successful verbal and non-verbal interpersonal<br />

communication between humans is interpersonal trust. Rotter (1967) <strong>de</strong>fined<br />

interpersonal trust as “an expectancy held by an individual or a group that the<br />

word, promise, or verbal or written statement of another individual or group can<br />

be relied upon”. Interpersonal trust has three primary components:<br />

<strong>de</strong>pendability, predictability, and faith (Rempel, Holmes, & Zanna, 1985).<br />

En el caso <strong>de</strong>l tercer concepto, empathy, los porcentajes correspondientes a una<br />

<strong>de</strong>finición incompleta <strong>de</strong>l concepto son más altos que los <strong>de</strong>l resto probablemente<br />

porque aunque <strong>la</strong> <strong>de</strong>scripción <strong>de</strong>l concepto en el párrafo VII está introducida por el<br />

verbo <strong>de</strong>scribir, los componentes <strong>de</strong> este concepto, si bien precedidos por<br />

enumeradores, aparecen en el párrafo VIII. Es posible que algunos estudiantes no<br />

hayan continuado con <strong>la</strong> lectura <strong>de</strong> este párrafo y por ese motivo sus <strong>de</strong>finiciones son<br />

incompletas.<br />

Empathy, like trust, also relies heavily on the communication of these verbal and<br />

non-verbal components (Ickes, Stinson, Bissonnette, & Garcia, 1990). Ickes<br />

(1993) <strong>de</strong>scribed empathy as being able to infer the thoughts and feelings of<br />

others and then <strong>de</strong>veloping a simi<strong>la</strong>r response that is compassionate to what the<br />

other person is feeling. Trust and empathy are closely re<strong>la</strong>ted. Perceptions of<br />

another person’s empathic reactions have been shown to lead to higher levels of<br />

trust toward that person……..<br />

Empathic accuracy, the first of two components of empathy, refers to the ability<br />

to infer, with reasonable accuracy, what someone else is thinking and feeling<br />

(Ickes, 1993)…. Once a person makes a reasonably accurate inference as to<br />

what the other person is thinking or feeling, a simi<strong>la</strong>r feeling may <strong>de</strong>velop. This<br />

second component of empathy is supportive response, or “responding<br />

compassionately to another person’s distress” (Coke, Batson, & McDavis, 1978).<br />
