A study by the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) has carried out the first Spanish study into the emotional differences between the sexes and generations in terms of forgiveness. According to the study, parents forgive more than children, while women are better at forgiving than men. "A decisive factor in the capacity to forgive is empathy, and women have a greater empathetic capacity than males," says Carmen Maganto, co-author of the study and a tenured professor at the Psychology Faculty of the UPV.
