Description
It was just over twenty years ago the term Dark Triad was introduced to describe three negative personality traits: psychopathy, narcissism, and Machiavellianism. Considering the perceived prevalence of these traits among some prominent politicians and business leaders, interest remains high. The Dark Triad builds on current research which often examines these traits in isolation, overlooking potential interactions with other personality traits, demographic factors, and contextual variables. Chapters explore how these intersections contribute to nuanced outcomes. The Dark Triad builds on current research which often examines the Dark Triad traits in isolation, overlooking potential interactions with other personality traits, demographic factors (e.g., gender, cultural background), and contextual variables. It will explore how these intersections contribute to nuanced outcomes. In addition, since developing reliable and valid assessment tools for Dark Triad traits remains a challenge, this book will discuss the current state of measurement and propose innovative approaches for accurate assessment such as the HDS personality questionnaire.
