Affective empathy involves the ability to understand another person's emotions and
respond appropriately. Such emotional understanding may lead to someone feeling
concerned for another person's well-being, or it may lead to feelings of personal distress.

Somatic empathy involves having a physical reaction in response to what someone else
is experiencing. People sometimes physically experience what another person is feeling.
When you see someone else feeling embarrassed, for example, you might start to blush
or have an upset stomach.

Cognitive empathy involves being able to understand another person's mental state
and what they might be thinking in response to the situation. This is related to what
psychologists refer to as the theory of mind or thinking about what other people are
thinking.
