Abstract
Two concepts that are present and well researched within coaching are empathy and autonomy support. While there is evidence that empathy and autonomy develop in an interactional process between coach and coachee, little is known of the relation between empathy and autonomy within coaching session. The present study is aimed at investigating the relationship between empathy opportunity and empathy response, and between autonomy support and autonomy response on a macro and micro level. Moreover, the study investigated the interaction between empathy response and autonomy support within in coach and the interaction between autonomy response and empathy opportunity within the coachee on a macro and micro level. In an observational design 21 audio recordings of coaching sessions from 8 coach-coachee dyads were analysed and coded. The data was analysed on the macro level through correlation, regression analysis and overall state space grid examination. On a micro-level, individual state space grid and time-series analyses were used. Analyses showed mixed results for the relationship between empathy opportunity from the coachee and empathy response from the coach and evidence for the positive relation between autonomy support from the coachee and autonomy response from the coach. Moreover, analyses showed evidence for the relationship between empathy response and autonomy support within the coach and mixed results for the relationship between autonomy response and empathy opportunity within the coachee. Implications of the study, limitations and suggestions for future research are discussed. Keywords: Coaching, empathy opportunity, empathy response, autonomy support, autonomy response, dynamical interaction in coaching
