The aim of this study was to examine the levels of empathic tendencies of student teachers under various variables. The research group consisted of a total of 407 student teachers, including 210 women and 197 men, from Suleyman Demirel, Mehmet Akif Ersoy, and Akdeniz Universities. The “Empathic Tendencies Scale” was used to determine the empathic tendencies of student teachers. In addition, sociodemographic information form consisting of questions about student teachers' gender, level of class, undergraduate program, presence of a teacher in their family, presence of another student in their family, and teaching experience was prepared and administered by the researcher. Since the obtained data did not follow a normal distribution, non-parametric tests were used. The research findings revealed that student teachers generally have high empathic tendencies, and that these tendencies are even higher among women and presence of a teacher in their family. Furthermore, the level of empathic tendency varied depending on undergraduate programs. However, it was found that having a student sibling in the family, having teaching experience, and class level did not affect empathetic tendencies. In conclusion, it was determined that empathic tendencies among student teachers show differences based on various demographic groups, and some of these differences are consistent with the literature but require further investigation.
