Abstract
The analysis of empathy influence on moral dilemma solving in adolescence is done. Significant correlations between empathy level and strategies of moral dilemma solving are revealed. High empathy level, mutual expectations and social acceptance correlates with care strategy and context-depending strategy. The lowest empathy level was found for egoistic strategy. Gender differences in empathy level were found – girls are orientated on empathy more than boys. Adolescences from towns showed higher level of empathy that their peers from cities.
