الملخص EN

The study aimed at measuring cognitive and affective empathy in Iraqi university student.

That required working on an Iraqi version of the Questionnaire of Cognitive and Affective Empathy (QCAE), constructed by Reniers et al (2011).

The author translated the instrument into Arabic, then performed a translation validity procedure, followed by face validity.

The instrument showed indicators of face and construct validity, in addition to internal (Cronbach's Alpha and split-half) and external (test-retest) reliability indicators.

The questionnaire was administered to sample of 191 (n-86, #105) undergraduate students at the University of Babylon.

Results showed high empathy levels that were similar in both genders.
