The study involved two different strands: (1) the questionnaire was translated into Spanish, and its internal consistency, factorial structure and convergent validity were assessed; (2) the questionnaire was subject to confirmatory factor analysis. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis show that the questionnaire’s factors present an aggregate variance of 58.588%, which suggests that the questionnaire is a valid tool to represent affective empathy, cognitive empathy and empathic concern. On the other hand, the confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the sustainability of the model, which comprises three identified factors and twelve items. The empathy questionnaire is easy to understand and can be completed in a short time, so it is considered a useful tool to assess empathy in Spanish adolescents. The results are discussed in the context of theoretical accounts of empathy. 000097053 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S46-20R 000097053 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000097053 590__ $$a1.429$$b2020 000097053 591__ $$aPSYCHOLOGY, MULTIDISCIPLINARY$$b100 / 139 = 0.719$$c2020$$dQ3$$eT3 000097053 592__ $$a0.325$$b2020 000097053 593__ $$aPsychology (miscellaneous)$$c2020$$dQ3 000097053 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000097053 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-3789-3781$$aUsan, Pablo$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000097053 7102_ $$14009$$2735$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
