本研究之研究目的為：（一）探討友情之內涵建構，並編製一份適合台灣地區大學生的「友情深度量表」，期能藉以建構本土文化的友情內涵，以供瞭解台灣地區大學生朋友間相處過程的人際互動。（二）探討台灣地區大學生友情的性別差異。（三）探討台灣地區大學生友情與同理心之間的關係。
為完成前述研究目的，本研究以台灣地區大學生為研究對象，預試樣本274人、正式樣本403人、友情與同理心相關研究樣本478人。研究工具包括開放式情境問卷、友情深度量表及觀點取替故事同理心量表。本研究所蒐集的資料以探索性因素分析、驗證性因素分析、多變項T2考驗、單因子重複量數變異數分析及積差相關分析等統計方法進行資料分析工作。
本研究的發現如下：
一、本研究所建構的友情驗證性因素分析模式並未違反基本模式適配度，而在整體模式適配度及內在結構適配度上也都顯示理論模式具有理想的品質，應適合用來解釋台灣地區大學生的觀察資料。
二、五種友情內涵向度中，除義氣未有顯著性別差異，其餘四向度，女生之平均得分皆顯著高於男生。
三、大學生之友情與同理心有顯著正相關。
本研究根據研究結果提出建議，以供未來相關研究與輔導之參考。

The purposes of this study were to: (a) explore the construction of friendship intension and build a Depth of Friendship Scale for college students in Taiwan to construct the friendship intension in local culture, and figure out the interaction between friends of the college students in Taiwan, (b) investigate the variety of friendship in gender of the college students in Taiwan, (c) examine the relationship between the friendship and empathy of the college students in Taiwan.

This study was based on samples in Taiwan from 274 college students as pilot sample; 403 college students as determining sample; 478 college students as study samples for the exploration of the relationship between the friendship and empathy. The instruments used in this study included open-ended situational questionnaire, Depth of Friendship Scale and Perspective Taking Story Empathy Scale. The statistical methods used to analyze the data were exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, Hotelling T2, one-way repeated measures ANOVA and product-moment correlation.
The results of this study were summarized as following: (a) the theoretical model fitted the data well, not only overall but internal structure model fitted criteria, (b) on five dimensions of friendship, except personal loyalty which didn't achieve the significantly variety of genders, the means of the girls were better than those of the boys on other dimensions, (c) the friendship and empathy of the college students in Taiwan got significantly positive correlation.
