Objective: To identify and evaluate the empathy of nursing students before and after a
simulated clinical activity.
Method: This is a quantitative and quasi-experimental study, carried out in the inland of the
state of São Paulo. 107 nursing students participated in the study. A medium-fidelity clinical
simulation scenario was built and validated. Empathy was evaluated through the Empathy
Inventory before and after the simulated clinical activity.
Results: There were positive changes after the simulated clinical activity in the cognitive
components of empathy and there were no changes, in parts, in the affective component of
empathy.
Conclusion: The simulated clinical activity, well outlined in a validated clinical simulation
scenario, was able to improve the cognitive component of empathy but was not susceptible
to changes in the affective component of empathy, which transfigures into feelings of
compassion and altruism.
