<![CDATA[This study was motivated by the continued presence of unempathetic behavior in the social interactions of students at MTs Ar-Raudloh Cileunyi, such as teasing one another, laughing at classmates who are sad, and the formation of exclusive friendship groups. This study aims to describe peer social interactions, student empathy, and the relationship between the two. A quantitative correlational method was used, involving 155 students from MTs Ar-Raudloh Cileunyi as respondents through total sampling. Data collection was conducted using a social interaction scale and an empathy scale, while data analysis employed descriptive statistics and the Pearson Product-Moment correlation test. The results indicate that peer social interaction falls into the high category (80.6%) and student empathy falls into the high category (72.3%). The results of the Pearson Product-Moment correlation test showed a positive and significant relationship between peer social interaction and student empathy (r = 0.654; p < 0.000). These findings indicate that the better the peer social interaction, the higher the level of student empathy.]]>
