Dark Triad traits and their structure: An empirical approach (2020, methodology): “…of dark personality items originating from different, most frequently used measures (i.e., the NPI, the MACH-IVand the LSRP) as possible, which overcomes the limitations of the existing single measurement models (e.g., SD3; Jones & Paulhus, 2014) and allows for complex analysis of the phenomenon.”
The Malevolent Side of Human Nature (2017, background): “Also, and more interesting from a theoretical point of view, some authors have argued that the positive manifold of dark traits defines a common conceptual space that may have psychological significance in its own right (Paulhus, 2014).”
Is the Dark Triad common factor distinct from low Honesty-Humility? (2018, methodology): “Paulhus (2014) has explic- itly considered a similar possibility, stating that ‘‘. . . one intriguing possibility for future research would involve measuring both positive and dark personality traits in the same people.”
The Assessment of Sadistic Personality: Preliminary psychometric evidence for a new measure (2017, methodology): “The 18-item Comprehensive Assessment of Sadistic Tendencies (CAST; Buckels & Paulhus, 2014) consists of three subscales encompassing verbal, physical, and vicarious sadism.”
Which personality traits are related to traditional bullying and cyberbullying? A study with the Big Five, Dark Triad and sadism (2017, background): “The Short Dark Triad Questionnaire (Jones & Paulhus, 2014) measures the so called Dark Triad of personality consisting of Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy.”
The relationship between the Dark Tetrad and a two-dimensional view of empathy (2018, neutral): “Narcissism features grandiosity, sense of entitlement, and exploitative interpersonal style, and is distinguished from the other dark personalities by a self-promoting behaviour driven by a need for ego-reinforcement (Jones & Paulhus, 2014).”
The Dark Tetrad: Structural properties and location in the personality space. (2015, methodology): “Therefore, the proposal of Chabrol and other researchers to add sadism to the other three traits within the new construct of the ‘‘Dark Tetrad’’ seems reasonable (Buckels et al., 2013; Chabrol et al., 2009; Paulhus, 2014).”
Upsides to Dark and Downsides to Bright Personality: A Multidomain Review and Future Research Agenda (2018, methodology): “Scales such as the 12-item Dirty Dozen (Jonason & Webster, 2010) and the 27-item Short Dark Triad (SD3; Jones & Paulhus, 2014) are intended to broadly capture the traits in the Dark Triad.”
