Thesis (M.Des.)--University of Cincinnati, 2013.

In recent decades, empathy has been described as an essential skill any designer must develop. Benefits of empathy, such as reaching a deeper understanding of others from a more caring perspective into the design process, should deliver more successful and meaningful products. The purpose of this thesis is to present a conceptual framework of empathy in order to understand how designers are building, using and receiving its benefits during the design process and to evaluate opportunities of increasing empathy components with training. An exploratory study was conducted comparing the impact of using different sources of information and simulation techniques on a design process, looking for changes in the level of empathy, previously assessed by a pre-and-post test. Results indicated that the inclusion of particular tools, as well as some variations in the research process, helped designers to share and understand better stakeholders' situations. This suggests that empathy is susceptible to be improved by training under specific conditions, and draw interesting guidelines for design education.
