Wiki Version:
The Dark Triad (i.e., narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism) has been widely studied in social-personality psychology and the MMPI-2-RF is a commonly used measure of personality structure and psychopathology in clinical psychology. However, little work has considered the associations between these two personality frameworks. The current research examined the associations between the facets of the Dark Triad and subscales of the MMPI-2-RF in order to gain a better understanding of dark personality features. Data were collected in a single study from 81 undergraduate participants. Multiple regression analyses revealed that the facets of the Dark Triad had unique associations with the MMPI-2-RF subscales. For example, the Emotional/Internalizing Dysfunction (EID) subscale was negatively associated with the leadership/authority facet of narcissism and primary psychopathy but it was positively associated with the exploitativeness/entitlement facet of narcissism and Machiavellianism. Discussion will focus on the implications of these results for our understanding of the Dark Triad. --
