Emotional intelligence, Machiavellianism and emotional manipulation: Does EI have a dark side? (2007, background): “Mach has also been found to be related negatively to the ability to read the emotions of others and positively to alexithymia, (Simon, Francis, & Lombardo, 1990; Wastell & Booth, 2003).”
The Development and Validation of a New Machiavellianism Scale (2009, unknown): “Despite a large body of research that indicates that Mach is rooted in stable personality (Wastell & Booth, 2003; Wilson et al., 1996), this finding suggests that future research should explore the extent to which Mach beliefs, like many individual differences, are malleable by experiences over the…”
Exploring Narcissism, Psychopathy, and Machiavellianism in Youth: Examination of Associations with Antisocial Behavior and Aggression (2013, background): “MACHs to some extent experience shame, although blunted, but both narcissists and MACHs hardly ever experience guilt (Austin et al., 2007; Tangney & Fischer, 1995; Wastell & Booth, 2003).”

The emotional deficits associated with the Dark Triad traits: Cognitive empathy, affective empathy, and alexithymia (2013, background): “Second, most studies examining the relationship between the Dark Triad and alexithymia have examined the traits on their own (e.g., Wastell & Booth, 2003).”
Measuring empathic tendencies : reliability and validity of the Dutch version of the interpersonal reactivity index (2007, background): “Relative to people with low scores on Mach, high Machs lack interpersonal warmth as well as the ability to identify emotions; as such, they may consequently have a diminished capacity to be empathic (Wastell & Booth, 2003).”
