• Psychopathic Leadership A Case Study of a Corporate Psychopath CEO (2017, unknown): “…the corporate governance (Turnbull 1997) aspect of this research and of whether psychopaths should be screened into organisations as reportedly happened in corporate banks (Basham 2011) or out of organisations (Marshall et al. 2015), there is still debate (Smith and Lilienfeld 2013; Boddy 2013b).”
• Do Bad Guys Get Ahead or Fall Behind? Relationships of the Dark Triad of Personality With Objective and Subjective Career Success (2016, background): “Psychopathy is, for example, positively related to severe forms of counterproductive work behavior (Smith & Lilienfeld, 2013) and is the strongest (negative) predictor of job performance among the Dark Triad traits (O’Boyle et al., 2012; Spain et al., 2014).”
• Successful Psychopathy (2015, background): “Still, the amount of popular speculation devoted to successful psychopathy dwarfs the modest research base bearing on its correlates and causes (Smith & Lilienfeld, 2013).”
• Are they among us? A conceptual framework of the relationship between the dark triad personality and counterproductive work behaviors (CWBs) (2016, background): “Smith and Lilienfeld (2013) noted that, in comparison to the high coverage of the concept by themedia, only a few scholarly articles on the issue exist, citing fewer than 50 papers published from 1990 to October 2012.”
• Extreme managers, extreme workplaces: Capitalism, organizations and corporate psychopaths (2015, background): “This research is important because there is deemed to be a lack of research into psychopaths within corporations and what the implications of this presence may be, and several calls for further research in this area have been made (Babiak et al., 2010; Boddy, 2006; Smith and Lilienfeld, 2013).”
• Are psychopaths and heroes twigs off the same branch? Evidence from college, community, and presidential samples (2013, background): “If so, at least some features of psychopathy may be tied to successful functioning in some domains of life (Hall & Benning, 2006; Smith & Lilienfeld, 2012).”
