THE EMPATHY TRIAD
Supersensitive reading of emotional signals represents a zenith of cognitive empathy, one of three main varieties of the ability to focus on what other people experience. This variety of empathy lets us take other people's perspective, comprehend their mental state, and at the same time manage our own emotions while we take stock of theirs. These can be top-down mental operations.
In contrast, with emotional empathy we join the other person in feeling along with him or her; our bodies resonate in whatever key of joy or sorrow that person may be going through. Such at tunement tends to occur through automatic, spontaneous-and bottom-up-brain circuits.
While cognitive or emotional empathy means we recognize what another person thinks and resonate with their feelings, it does not necessarily lead to sympathy, concern for others' welfare. The third variety, empathic concern, goes further: leading us to care about them, mobilizing us to help if need be. This compas sionate attitude builds on bottom-up primal systems for caring and attachment deep down in the brain, though these mix with more reflective, top-down circuits that evaluate how much we value their well-being.
