So this survey is going to discover the influence of the empathy to affect the social skills in childhood time. This survey uses questionnaire to gather data from the testees. The survey contains 24 question, 20 of them is the empathy test, 2 of them is age and sex, the last two one is related to the social skills. The questionnaire results show three main conclusions.

Next, the more scores the empathy test a person has, the more scores on the social ability he or she has. The last conclusion is that age and sex are capable to affect the empathy level, although not all of them is related to the social skills.
