What is Cognitive Empathy?










      Daniel Goleman, in his 1995 book Emotional Intelligence, describes Cognitive

      Empathy as the skill of creating a mental understanding of another person's


      experience.’







      “Knowing how the other person feels and what they might be thinking.

      Sometimes called perspective-taking.”










      This can also be referred to as ‘Theory of Mind’.
