Abstract
The present study aims to investigate the gender differences in the relationship of altruism with empathy of adolescents. The present study was carried out on 240 adolescents (120 girls & 120 boys) in the age group of 16-18 years from Government Senior Secondary schools of Ludhiana District. For data collection, Socio-personal Information Sheet, Altruism Scale (Rai & Singh) and Empathy Scale (Dubey & Tandon) were used. The results revealed that majority of the adolescents had higher level of altruism. However, gender wise differences indicated that girls were found to be more altruistic and more empathetic as compared to boys. Statistically significant and positive correlation existed between altruism and empathy across both the genders.
